Rahul Dravid is known as Mr Wall. And today he again proved that he is an impregnable wall.

Rahul Dravid, on Monday became the fifth highest run-getter and second Indian to complete 11,000 Test runs when he took a single to take his individual score to 177 against Sri Lanka on the Day 1 of the first Test in Ahmedabad.

Only other Indian to achieve this feat is Sachin Tendulkar, who tops the list of top scorers with 12777 runs in 160 Tests.

Apart from Tendulkar and Dravid, three other cricketers feature in the 11K-run club, namely Brian Lara (11953), Ricky Ponting (11345) and Allan Border (11174).
