While he was very recited,he declared” that it has taken him 13 yrs to get to this milestone”, he later said at the end of the game that “Everyone growing up wishes they could do it, but the thing I’m most proud about is my longevity in the game. To play so many Tests, I’m proud of that record. As a top-order batsman, if you play that many games, you’re probably expected to get close on 10,000.”
