Kumar Sangakkara Reaches 10,000 run Milestone in Test Cricket

Sri Lankan batsman Kumar Sangakkara has become only the 11th batsman and the 2nd Sri Lankan to score 10,000 Test runs, passing the landmark on the starting day of the 2nd Test against Australia at the MCG.

Kumar Sangakkara, 35, stood tall in a bad opening session for the visitors, getting the 40 runs he required to reach the five-figure landmark just before lunch. The 35-year-old achieved 43 with a marvelous cover drive for 4 from the bowling of Mitchell Johnson. He averages over 55 in a career spanning 115 Tests. Sangakkara took a particular liking to the bowling of Johnson on Wednesday, taking 15 runs from one over from the left-armer.

Sangakkara achieved 10,000 Tests runs in 195 innings, equalling the record earlier shared by Brian Lara and Sachin Tendulkar. The only other Sri Lankan to have made over 10,000 Test runs, present captain Mahela Jayawardene, was dismissed for 3 on Wednesday.

Sachin Tendulkar tops the Test run-scorers list with 15,645.
