While you wait Zimi, your new battery has been ordered.

And I went the extra $2.50 for insurance. I figured you wouldn't mind.

Just over a hundred runs needed to break the Test record for any wicket...

Hoping not to woof things here but these could go:

Biggest Test partnership for any wicket 576 Mahanama and Jayasuriya v India 1997

Record highest score at the fall of the third wicket - 627, SL v Zimmers 2004

Biggest First Class partnership for any wicket 577 VS Hazare and Gul Mohammed at Baroda 1946/47 (Unless someone has a more up-to-date one that's slipped by me.)

And Biggest recorded partnership for the 3rd (and indeed for any) wicket at any level (as far as I know) an unbroken 664 by Vinod Kambi and Sachin Tendulkar for Sharadashram Vidyamandir against the poor unfortunate sods of St Xavier's at Mumbai in 1988.

Just looked up the scorecard for that 664* and discovered that not only did Kambli score 349* (possibly unique too...) But he came out and bowled, taking 6/37, including 3 ducks.

It's a really weird scorecard for that innings too, it seems there were 6 c&b, 2 bowleds and 1 run out...

Meanwhile back to the present, Mahela's highest FC score prior to this dig was 274, and Kumar's closing in on his previous best of 270.
