#2. Roshan Mahanama - Sri Lanka (28 Away Tests)
Indian fans require no introduction for this man. He remains the other part of the mammoth 576-run partnership with Sanath Jayasuriya when Sri Lanka scored 952 runs against India in Colombo Test 1997.
Roshan Mahanama spent most of his Test career while batting at the opening position for Sri Lanka. In 52 Test matches, Mahanama scored four Test centuries, all of which came while batting at home. Two of his centuries came against India and the remaining two were scored off New Zealand.
Mahanama managed six away fifties but failed to reach the elusive three-figures mark. His highest away score of 85 from 229 balls came against Australia at Hobart in Dec 1989. Mahanama fought bravely alongside Aravinda De Silva in a partnership of 128 runs to resurrect the team from a delicate situation of 18/3 but missed out on a well-deserved century.
