Stats: Most runs by an individual in an innings against India in Tests

Sri Lankan batsman Sanath Jayasuriya

Sri Lankan opener Sanath Jayasuriya holds the record for the highest score against India in an innings in Tests. The destructive left hander piled on 340 against a beleaguered Indian bowling attack in 1997. Graham Gooch’s 333 at the Lord’s is still regarded one of the best Test innings ever played.
