Anil Kumble is the 30th player to captain India in Tests.
When Dravid caught Salman Butt in the second innings, it was his 50th catch off Kumble, making them only the third fielder-bowler combination in Test history to claim at least 50 dismissals.
Sachin Tendulkar went past Allan Border's aggregate of 11,174 to become the second-highest run-getter in Tests. His aggregate at the end of the match was 11,207.
India have won ten Tests at the Feroz Shah Kotla, seven of them in a row. Only at the MA Chidambaram Stadium have they won more (11 Tests).
