Australia cricket skipper Ricky Ponting became the seventh batsman in One Day International cricket history to join the 10,000 run-club.

Ponting achieved the milestone while scoring 91 runs against South Africa in St. Kitts on Saturday in a World Cup match.

The dashing Aussie batsman now joins six other cricketing greats in the list headed by India’s master batsman Sachin Tendulkar, who was the first to reach the milestone in ODI history back in 2001.

Others in the 10,000 club are Rahul Dravid, Sourav Ganguly, Inzamam ul Haq, Sanath Jayasuriya and West Indies’ Brian Lara.
