England have long been a bastion of great batting on the cricket field.

And they first set an incredible record for most runs in a game with 849 against the West Indies in their 1929/30 clash.

But just eight years later England smashed their own record.

They achieve a score of 903-7 in 1938’s clash against Australia.

And that record lasted 59 years before it came crashing down, with Sri Lanka now holding the current winning record.

They hit a score of 952-6 against India in 1997.

The record has lasted to this day, even though England are hoping to reclaim their crown with a current score of 823-7 in their ongoing match with Pakistan.

But captain Joe Root, currently the fifth-highest leading Test run scorer with 12,664, still has work to do.

That’s because Sri Lanka had no other aim than to smash England’s previous record from 1938 over a quarter of a century ago.

They accepted that their match against India, who had made 537 for 8, would be a draw on a dead pitch.

And in the rout, Sanath Jayasuriya even recorded the fourth-highest score in a Test match with 340 runs from 578 balls — just shy of Brian Lara’s record of 375.

He said at the time: “I was happy to go all that way. I wasn’t going after the record.

“At least not until the end of the fourth day, when someone told me I was only 50 short.

“I felt a great pressure when I came out to bat and obviously I am disappointed now — but at least my country has made a great achievement.”

The record Sri Lanka score did not go down well with India cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar though, with the two-Test series ending in a 0-0 stalemate.

He reckons the pitch for the match was “unfit for Test cricket”, and also reckoned India could have hit the record if they had battered second.

Tendulkar, who remains the leading Test run scorer with 15,921, added: “If we lost the toss and batted second, we could also have played a massive innings.

“We only lost wickets because we took chances and looked for runs.”
