This is how the three members of Exclusive-10,000 club reached this milestone:
| Batsman | Mts | Inns | Ave. | Reached on |
| Tendulkar | 266 | 259 | 42.37 | v Australia,Indore,31-03-2001 |
| Inzamam | 322 | 299 | 39.06 | v India,Birmingham,19-09-2004 |
| Ganguly | 272 | 263 | 41.22 | v Sri Lanka, Dambulla,03-08-2005 |
Note: It must be noted that all of Ganguly's runs have not come for India.
His aggregate includes an innings of 22 for an Asian XI v World XI in a Tsunami Relief Fund match played at Melbourne in January this year, which was given official status by ICC, but not considered by many statisticians (most notably by Bill Frindall) since it flouted ICC's own ruling about official ODIs.
So technically Ganguly is still 4 short of completing his 10,000 runs for TEAM INDIA.
