This innings could have broken the oldest record in Test history; most percentage of runs by a single batsman in a completed innings. Laxman scored 167 out of 261 = 63.98% of the Indian total. The record still belongs to Australia's Charles Bannerman, who scored 165 out 245 = 67.34% of Australia's total in the first innings of the first test match ever played in 1877.
india retain its ranking 'coz of vvs laxman ,,its laxman who saves matches and also make losed matches win for india,,bot all credit is going to dhoni who did nothing ,nothing in his batting nothing in captainsy but no credit for vvs and no advertisement for vvs whyyy???
After this inning and the epic 281, I thought Laxman would go on to become the best the in the world. He used to attack a lot more before. These days he scores a lot of hundreds and all, but they are normally dour affairs. Maybe it doesnt help he is at number 6 in the lineup. I stil feel India need to attack more by sending him at three.

Poor Laxman left stranded. I saw this live. After the blow to the head by McGrath, Laxman shifted gears and gave it all. Hats off to VVS Laxman.
Laxman has done a lot for the team, but his efforts mostly drown in the shadow attnetion craving glorified teammates.
VVS Laxman is truly a very gutsy performer.
