Who146;s writing your script, Mr Mendis?

Just before the Test, when Mendis was asked about the record, he had mentioned that there was just one thing missing. 8220;Haven8217;t got Tendulkar out yet.8221; At the fag end of play today, he achieved both 8212; the record and his dream wicket. After the first Test, Tendulkar was the lone Indian batsman for whom Mendis wasn8217;t quite a mystery. And in the second Test, the duo didn8217;t come face to face Chaminda Vaas getting the Indian in both innings. And once debutant Dammika Prasad got Tendulkar in the first innings here, time was running out for Mendis. He delivered, in style.

Rival spinner Harbhajan Singh applauded the efforts of the history-maker. 8220;I wish I could pick his wicket-taking luck. We all bowl the same sort of deliveries. He has been the guy who has changed the series for them. Without him, I think Sri Lanka would have really struggled in this series,8221; he said.
