    Steve Smith scripts another record, eclipses Sachin Tendulkar
  • Former Australian skipper Steve Smith is enjoying the form of his life as he continued to break records.

    He now has 7,000 Test runs and with this, he became the 11th Australian to achieve this feat.

    He eclipsed legendary cricketers like Don Bradman, Sachin Tendulkar, and Virender Sehwag.

    On the same note, we take a look at the records broken by Smith.

    In the process, he has gone past the previous record held by England's Walter Hammond (131), while India's Virender Sehwag and Sachin Tendulkar did so in 134 and 136 innings, respectively.

  • Do you know?

    In nine innings, Smith has scored 814 runs and is just 15 runs behind his team-mate Marnus Labuschagne on the top.

    At number three is India's Mayank Agarwal with 754 runs in 11 innings.
