Sanath Jayasuriya and Roshan Mahanama hold the Test cricket record for the highest second-wicket partnership - 576 runs against India in 1997. This Sri Lankan pair batted together through two full days and became the first partnership to exceed 500 runs in Test cricket. Their record stood for nearly a decade until Sangakkara and Jayawardene broke it for the third wicket. This partnership was part of Sri Lanka's record-breaking team total of 952 runs.
