Rahul Dravid overtook former West Indies captain Brain Lara as the third highest run-getter in Test cricket. Coming into the Test needing 11 runs to surpass Lara’s 11,953, Dravid reached the milestone with a double, clipping Dale Steyn off the back foot towards square-leg.
Dravid, who had an average of 53.31 before this Test, achieved the feat in his 148th match. Teammate Sachin Tendulkar leads the chart followed by Australian captain Ricky Ponting
WTF, another player overtook Lara?

my initial reaction was WTF but congrats to Dravid for being third on that list. At few years ago a thought he was a goner but good for him.
