Yet another underrated/ignored achievement

As the hype around Sachin’s possible chance to break Lara’s highest test aggregate record continues, Dravid has calmly (I have not been following TV coverage of cricket; so I don’t know whether this was mentioned in the first Test vs Sri Lanka. At least, this was ignored in papers, blogs and even the popular CricInfo) equalled Gavaskar’s total of 10,122, taking 2 lesser tests.

I wish people recognize it at least when he crosses the mark. It is a notable achievement considering that Gavaskar’s total was once the highest.
