Rahul Dravid became the first batsman to score hundreds in all ten Test-playing countries after notching up his 18th hundred at Chittagong. Apart from the six hundreds at home, Dravid has three hundreds in England, which were chalked up on the trot, two in New Zealand, in the same game at Hamilton in 1998-99, and one each in the other seven countries. Dravid has always been the best of travellers: his overseas average is currently a remarkable 12 points higher than his home average.
