Master batsman Sachin Tendulkar [Images] set a world record for most centuries in Test cricket as India ended the opening day in the second Test against Sri Lanka [Images] at the Feroz Shah Kotla in New Delhi, on Saturday in a strong position.

Playing his 125th Test, Tendulkar, who was unbeaten on 100 at close, registered his 35th Test century to surpass compatriot Sunil Gavaskar's [Images] long-standing record of 34 Test centuries.

His last century was the 248 not out against Bangladesh at Dhaka in December 2004.

Join us in congratulating the 32-year-old batting genius.
