Rahul Dravid's 92 in the second innings of Melbourne Test earned him a dubious distinction. It was the sixth time -- the maximum by an Indian batsman in Test cricket -- that Dravid was dismissed in the nineties. He was previously level with Sunil Gavaskar and Sachin Tendulkar

The world record is held by Australia's Steve Waugh with 10 scores in nineties.

Most 'nineties' by any Indian batsmen
