Having been the first one to reach quite a few landmarks, the legendary Sachin Tendulkar on Sunday became the first person in the history of Test cricket to complete 14,000 runs. Tendulkar cut off-spinner Nathan Hauritz's delivery through coverpoint to hit a boundary and accomplished the feat at 25 of his unbeaten 44 in the day. It was the fourth delivery of the 27th over of the Indian innings.
Incidentally, it was during Australia's last tour of India, Sachin crossed Brian Lara's record of most number of runs in Test cricket.
