We all know that Sachin Tendulkar is the leading run-scorer in the history of Test cricket. Do you know who is in second place?
Not surprisingly, Rahul Dravid has quietly overtaken Ricky Ponting and trails only Sachin Tendulkar on the all-time run-getters list in Test cricket. Quite an achievement for quite a guy . . . and the lack of fanfare is typical. After all he has more important things to worry about, like saving Test matches. A task that he does really well.
In the mean time, let's raise our glasses and honor this incredible achievement.
Well done, Rahul, well done! For once, you can look back at the rest of the players in the world (but one). Enjoy this moment of zen!
