Jayawardene was only 26 off matching Brian Lara's world record of 400!

astonishing stuff for anyone who likes cricket

Yea but a normal game is over wehn you reach like 300

 

[ilaya]

well they got 500+ lead going into 4th day.. game still winnable

 

[old.Tohtori]

These kinds of records are quite debatable since it depends who you play against really

 

[leviathane]

rly you bat for like 3/4 days to get tht score, then the other team can't even get close and so decide to just try n stay in and just draw the match, fail to see the point in scoring big like tht 300-400 is a good score.
