The current record holder for highest run scorer in Test Cricket History with 11,953 runs has wishes Tendulkar to break the record. He said, records are meant to be broken and Sachin should go for it.
"I wish Sachin all the best. Records are meant to be broken. It's a pleasure to be counted in the elite list of players like Sachin and (Sunil) Gavaskar. We should appreciate Sachin for whatever he does," the WI batsman said.
The 39-year old WI batsman has 11953 runs on his account from 131 tests that he appeared for his country. Tendulkar is just 77 runs to go beat Lara. He has scored 11,877 runs in 150 test matches.
"I would have loved to be at Bangalore to watch him when he breaks my record, but I'm flying off to Australia tomorrow," he said. Lara indicated that the next person who can beat Sachin's record would be Ricky Ponting.
Good luck Tendular. We all hope that you will beat the record in Bangalore itself and you do not require another Test!
