Steve Smith has written his name in the history books as only the fourth Australian to score 10,000 Test runs.
Having famously finished the recent home summer just one run short, Smith reached the milestone with a single to mid-on on day one of the series opener against Sri Lanka in Galle on Wednesday.
The Australian contingent of the crowd stood and applauded as Smith scampered home from the first ball he faced off left-arm off-spinner Prabath Jayasuriya.
