Sachin scores test double against Sri Lanka
The greatest batsman the game has ever seen, Sachin Tendulkar has hammered yet another double century against Sri Lanka on Day Four of the second Test against Sri Lanka at the Sinhalese Sports Club ground here on Thursday.
If Mahela Jayawardene broke the legendary Donald Bradman’s record for most hundreds (10) at a single venue on Tuesday, Sachin Tendulkar, the ‘Don’ of our times, has bettered his own by cracking his double century in a style. He has added yet another feather to his well-adorned cap.
Unbeaten and unnerved Tendulkar’s knock has comprised copybook shots. Those cover drives, flicks and cuts between point and third man — everything was on display.
Tendulkar has batted like a man with a mission and the Sri Lankan bowlers simply have no clue where to bowl. Once he crossed the 150-mark, the crowd anticipated something special and Tendulkar did not let them down.
Tendulkar, the world’s leading run-getter, equaled West Indian Brian Lara’s record of 19 scores of 150-plus. Australian legend Don Bradman did it on 18 occasions.

Facebook reaches 500 million users
Social networking site Facebook officially has 500 million users.
The milestone means that the six-year old website now reaches eight percent of the planet’s population, just 18 months after it passed the 150 million user mark.
Last month Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg said there is a “good chance” that the social networking site could boast one billion users within three to five years.
Facebook has continued adding users at a record-setting pace despite growing concerns about the privacy policies of a site that has more data on its users than any other website.
Facebook marked the milestone with the launch of a special section in which users are encouraged to post their personal stories about how Facebook has affected them.
