Cricket Legend and batting genius Sachin Tendulkar to lash the Australian bowling attack when he hit his sixth double century on the fourth day of the second and final Test in Bangalore on Tuesday.

Tendulkar, who was unbeaten on 191 at the end of the third day's play, reached the landmark in the sixth over of the day. This marks Tendulkar's second double century against Australia, the first one being an unbeaten 241 in Sydney in January 2004.

Sachin Tendulkar is the only batsman in the world to hit a double century in One Day International cricket. Tendulkar is the only man to post 1,000 runs in a calendar year on six occasions -- with Ricky Ponting, Matthew Hayden and Brian Lara hitting this milestone five times.

With this superb knock Tendulkar's aggregate for the year so far have gone up to 1194 runs at an average of 99.5. On Day 3, Tendulkar has written another record by his name by making a 150-plus score for the record 20th time overtaking Brian Lara's 19. He also became only the third batsman, after David Gower and Jack Hobbs to score 3000 Test runs against Australia.

Tendulkar had passed 14,000 Test runs on the second day of the Test taking just 12 innings to race there the fastest he has ever gone from one 1,000-run mark to the next.

Sachin’s tally has gone up to a mindboggling 95 international centuries, including 46 in ODIs. Tendulkar is expected to complete the 50 Test centuries by the time the three-Test series against New Zealand ends next month, with just five centuries left to complete a ton of tons in international cricket

Following is the list of Tendulkar's double centuries in Test cricket:

New Zealand - Ahmedabad - October 1999

Zimbabwe - Nagpur - November 2000
