Australian batter Steve Smith achieved a monumental feat, January 29, during the first Test against Sri Lanka in Galle. Smith became the 15th player in history and the fourth Australian to score 10,000 runs in Test cricket. This landmark cements his place among the all-time greats of the game. Smith’s journey to this milestone has been nothing short of remarkable, marked by resilience, determination, and a unique batting style that has defied conventional norms.
Smith’s journey to 10,000 Test runs was not without its dramatic moments. In the previous Test against India at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG), he was dismissed agonizingly short of the milestone at 9,999 runs. However, in Galle, he finally crossed the threshold, becoming the third-fastest player to reach the landmark in terms of innings played. Smith achieved this feat in his 205th innings, placing him behind legends like Brian Lara, Sachin Tendulkar, and Kumar Sangakkara, who reached the milestone in 195 innings. Former Australian captain Ricky Ponting achieved the feat in 196 innings.
