Kingston, Jamaica: Younus Khan became the first Pakistani cricket player to score 10,000 Test runs, reaching the landmark shortly after tea on the third day of the first Test against West Indies on Sunday.

In the history of the sports, the 39-year-old, Younus Khan is just the 13th batsman to break the 10,000-run barrier.

According to details, Younus took his place in the record books with a sweep shot for a boundary off slow bowler Royston Chase on the second ball after the interval at Sabina Park having started the day requiring just 23 runs to reach his target.
