Chennai, March 29: Opener Virender Sehwag was dismissed for 319 early on the fourth day of the first Test against South Africa on Saturday.

The 29-year-old improved his own Indian record for the highest Test score of 309, but failed to break the world record of 400 not out held by West Indies batsman Brian Lara.

Sehwag added 10 runs to his overnight total before edging a rising delivery from paceman Makhaya Ntini to Neil McKenzie at first slip in the fourth over of the day.

Sehwag joined Australian Don Bradman and Lara as the other batsmen who have scored two test triple hundreds.
