Explanation

Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardene hold the Test cricket record for the highest third-wicket partnership - 624 runs against South Africa in 2006, which is also the highest partnership for ANY wicket. This legendary partnership at the Sinhalese Sports Club Ground in Colombo spanned nearly three days and included three centuries from Sangakkara and a double century from Jayawardene. Their partnership broke the previous all-wicket record of 576 runs held by Jayasuriya and Mahanama.
