Which Indian cricketer has the highest individual score in a Test match outside India?
Virender Sehwag, the swashbuckling opener, holds the distinction of scoring the highest individual score by an Indian batsman in Test cricket outside India. Sehwag achieved this remarkable feat during the first Test match against South Africa at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai (formerly Madras) in March 2008. His blistering innings of 319 runs showcased his audacious strokeplay, aggressive intent, and ability to dominate top-quality bowling attacks even on foreign soil. Sehwag’s triple century remains one of the most memorable innings played by an Indian cricketer overseas.
