Would like this but its a T20 record

David Bumble Lloyd took back a Test record yesterday he had previously held, the highest score by a batsman who has no other score over 50. Nair had taken it off him, but his 50 yesterday hands Lloyd's 214 the record back.

Looking at Lloyd's record, it's as if he was determined to get that record: his 15 innings include ones of 49, 48, 46 and 44.

According to Andrew Samson (and I cannot read the entire blog as it's behind a paywall), Root took one of Tendulkar's records in the Oval Test (an unwanted one). Apparently, it was the 113th time he had gone wicketless in an innings when bowling, which has overtaken Sachin's previous number.

There are some interesting names in that list:

Kallis throwing down over a 1,000 wicketless overs to be 3rd overall, only Carl Hooper remotely close to that number.
If Broad, Anderson and Stokes can all have bowled that many wicketless innings, who did take the wickets???
I'm guessing the Waugh backyard was a road!
