Not selfish enough to score 400* in one innings and deny victory

[Captain of Bhangra]

Sachin Tendulkar made a World Record 497 Test runs between dismissals early in 2004. He started with 241 and 60, both not out, against Australia at Sydney in January, and followed that with 194 not out and 2 against Pakistan in March and April. The previous record was 490, by Garry Sobers, whose then-record 365 not out against Pakistan in 1957-58 was followed by an innings of 125...

[Zakhmi]

Perhaps also not wanting or patient enough to score a 400* ?

Though Sachin says the opposite, I always feel that he enjoys his ODI innings better than his test innings. So perhaps, he doesn't care to score the highest score in a Test innings. Plus, Lara deserves that record rather than M. Hayden, so I'm actually quite glad he got it. He got it against a formidable opposition that would beat Australia the next year. So that's quite impressive.

Dravid could have broken Lara's record easily if they were still playing tests with no time limit :giggle: ... I think he would need 3 days to score 400

With his current form, might need a week or so.
