Scores like that vs. Bangladesh aren't going to help him get there. He is a mile off, no chance of doing it.

When he passes the record I am going to dig up each one of Jono's posts where he said there was no chance. It'll be about as many posts as Cook has test runs

He really should have no chance of passing Tendulkar's runs because he should never play another match again. Should be dropped after being the captain for the disgrace that is the Bangladesh tour if truth be told.

Does that mean if England win in India that Kohli should be dropped?

Maybe he will do this now .

He might be so determined to avenge this he won't be able to retire until he's been back to Bangladesh, so that should be round about this time in 2023

How many wives will you have got through by then FF?
None - I've been given a certificate by my GP that says I don't have the mental capacity to marry and I have lodged a copy with every registrar in the country and had it noted on my passport - 'twas expensive but after what the last one cost me still a bargain

Hope Cook does surpass him. The amount of crying it would generate would be amazing. Would legitimately open up the discussion re: whether Cook overtook him as the 3rd greatest test bat ever too.

Tendulkar nuts will always have redeeming aspects. When Cook was getting 10000 runs, he was said to be the youngest. They said Tendulkar would have the record for doing it in least tests. When Cook did it in lower number of tests, they highlighted how Tendulkar was younger.
