MS Dhoni becomes fifth Indian batsman to score 10,000-run mark in ODI
Sydney, Jan 12: The seasoned Mahendra Singh Dhoni Saturday became the fifth player to score 10,000 runs for India in One-day International cricket, adding another feather to his illustrious cap.
Starting the innings at 9999 runs, Dhoni took seven deliveries to reach the landmark on his way to a patient 51 in the first ODI of the three-match series against Australia, here.
While the right-handed Dhoni had crossed the 10,000-run mark in the format in 2017 during the England tour, 174 of them came while batting for Asia XI in three matches. On Saturday, he breached the mark for the country.
Dhoni thus joined an elite list of Indian cricketers who had previously achieved the feat, which include Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly, Rahul Dravid and Virat Kohli.
In 330 ODIs for India, the wicketkeeper-batsman has now over 10,050 runs at an average of 49.75, including nine centuries and 67 fifties.
Overall, Dhoni is the 13th player in history to score 10,000 runs in the ODIs.

Nandini launches protein-infused idli-dosa batter for urban consumers in Karnataka
Bengaluru: Karnataka's homegrown brand Nandini, under the Karnataka Milk Federation (KMF), has launched a ready-to-cook idli-dosa batter blended with 5 per cent whey protein, aiming to make the traditional South Indian breakfast more nutritionally balanced.
Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah launched the product on Wednesday.
In a statement, KMF said that due to work pressures, many urban residents lack the time to prepare food at home, and consumers are increasingly seeking ready-to-eat meals that can be quickly prepared.
''Therefore, we decided to offer a superior quality, healthy Nandini idli-dosa batter, blended with 5 per cent whey protein, at an affordable price,'' it stated.
According to KMF, the batter will be available in two pack sizes—450g for Rs 40 and 900g for Rs 80. It will be sold at milk parlours.
KMF also mentioned that it will assess market demand in Bengaluru before expanding the product to other cities.
