Sachin Tendulkar reaches the milestone of 15005 run in 182 test match

QN9KTPP6JMNU
Sachin Tendulkar has once again proved that he is the greatest batsman of this era by crossing the 15,000 points milestone, while playing against West Indies in the 1^st test match at Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium in New Delhi . Tendulkar is most likely to reach yet another milestone of much awaited 100^th century in International cricket. Sachin achieved the milestone of 15,005 runs in his 182^nd test match.  

Below is the list of top ten scorers in test cricket:

Player	Country	Runs
Sachin Tendulkar	India	15,005
Rahul Dravid	India	12,859
Ricky Ponting	Australia	12,487
Brian Lara	West Indies	11,953
Jack Kallis	South Africa	11,947
Alan Border	Australia	11,174
Shane Waugh	Australia	10,927
Sunil Gavaskar	India	10,122
Mahela Jayawardene	Sri Lanka	9,954
S.Chanderpaul	West Indies	9,658

Sachin Tendulkar was the first person to clear the landmark of 12,000, 13,000 and 14,000 points as well. His rivals are far behind in the race and would take years to break his records. No wonder now if you call Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar , the Millennium cricket of this century.  With the kind of dedication he has shown towards his profession all throughout his career, setting records which cannot be easily broken, he is definitely a true inspiration for all the cricket fans all over the world.
