Hambantota : Sri Lanka's Kumar
Sangakkara on Wednesday
became only the fourth batsman
in history to surpass the 13,000-
run mark in ODIs, achieving the
feat in his 386th match.
The 37-year-old left-hander
reached the landmark during the
third match against England in
Hambantota when he took a
single off Chris Woakes to move
to 13. Sangakkara lies behind
three retired batsmen in the all-
time list led by Sachin Tendulkar
of India, who made 18,426 runs
in 463 ODI matches.
Former Australian captain Ricky
Ponting has 13,704 runs in 375
ODI matches and Sanath
Jayasuriya of Sri Lanka has 13,430
runs in 445 games.
Sangakkara, who made his
international debut in 2000, is
also just 12 runs short of
completing 12,000 Test runs. He
has made 11,988 runs in 128
Tests.
