London, June 5 (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 5th Jun, 2022 ) :England's Joe Root became just the 14th batsman to score 10,000 Test runs when he reached the landmark during his match-winning 115 not out in a five-wicket victory against New Zealand at Lord's on Sunday.
Root, however, still has some way to go if he is to top India hero Sachin Tendulkar's all-time record of 15,921 Test runs.
But the 31-year-old Root is the only batsman among this select group of run-scorers to still be playing Test cricket.
Most Test runs (player, team, span, matches, innings, not outs, runs, highest score, average, 100s, 50s, 0s) Sachin Tendulkar (IND) 1989-2013 200 329 33 15,921 248* 53.78 51 68 14 Ricky Ponting (AUS) 1995-2012 168 287 29 13,378 257 51.85 41 62 17 Jacques Kallis (RSA/ICC) 1995-2013 166 280 40 13,289 224 55.
