Sri Lankan all-rounder Kamindu Mendis celebrated surpassing 1,000 Test runs, playing a crucial role in the whitewash victory over New Zealand with his unbeaten 182 in Galle. Mendis is determined to continue his stellar form in the upcoming white-ball tours against the West Indies.

Mendis hit the four-digit mark in Test format in just his 13th inning. Following his achievement, he shares the incredible feat with the legendary Don Bradman. He is the third-fastest ever and the quickest since 1949 to the elusive record.
