This is how the three members of Exclusive-10,000 club reached this milestone:
BatsmanMtsInnsAve.Reached on
Tendulkar26625942.37v Australia,Indore,31-03-2001
Inzamam32229939.06v India,Birmingham,19-09-2004
Ganguly27226341.22v 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 [Images] Relief Fund match played at Melbourne in January this year, which was given official status by ICC [Images], 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.
