Cricket is a game of records, and each new game offers players the chance to break old records and establish new ones for future generations. There are certain records, though, that might never be surpassed because they are so amazing that it seems nearly impossible to beat them. The top 10 cricket records that may never be broken are discussed in this article.
1. Don Bradman's Batting Average Of 99.94 In Test Cricket
Don Bradman is recognized as the greatest cricketer of all time, and his Test cricket batting average of 99.94 remains a record to this day. Adam Voges, who retired with an average of 61.87, was the closest to breaking this record.
2. Sachin Tendulkar's 100 International Centuries
One of the most productive batters in the game's history, Sachin Tendulkar's record of 100 international hundreds is not expected to be broken. Virat Kohli, who has scored 75 international hundreds, is the man who is currently the closest to this milestone.
3. Brian Lara's 400 Not Out In Test Cricket
The highest individual score in Test cricket history is 400 not out by Brian Lara. No score has come close to Lara's record, which he set against England in 2004, despite the fact that there have been numerous high scores in previous years.
4. Jack Hobbs' First-class Career Runs Of 61,237
Jack Hobbs is one of the best batters in cricket history, and his 61,237 runs in First-Class competition are proof of that. Hobbs scored 197 centuries and 1,000 runs in a season 15 times while playing for Surrey and England. Due to the evolving nature of cricket and the fact that players no longer play as much First-Class cricket as they formerly did, it seems doubtful that this record will be beaten.
5. Muttiah Muralitharan- Most Test Wickets
With 800 wickets, Muttiah Muralitharan leads the Test cricket wicket-takers list. He is the only bowler to take 800 Test wickets. Shane Warne, who has 708 wickets, is the next-closest bowler to him with 800 Test wickets. It is very difficult to surpass this record.
6. Wilfred Rhodes- Most First-class Wickets
Wilfred Rhodes holds the record for the most first-class wickets, and have being dismissed 4,204 times. With the decline in the amount of first-class games played these days, it seems doubtful that this record will be surpassed. Rhodes' accomplishments continue to serve as a monument to his talent and endurance in the game, and his legacy continues to motivate cricketers all over the world.
7. Bapu Nadkarni- Consecutive Maiden Overs
In Test cricket, Rameshchandra Gangaram Nadkarni, a left-arm spinner from India, holds the record for most consecutive first overs bowled. Nadkarni set an unbreakable record by bowling 21 straight first-over overs during the 1964–65 series against Pakistan. Another outstanding accomplishment is his economy rate, which in the same series was 1.67 runs per over. Success in cricket still depends on precision and control in bowling, as demonstrated by Nadkarni's track record.
8. Phil Simmons- Lowest Odi Economy Rate
In One Day Internationals (ODIs), Phil Simmons achieved an economy rate of 1.97, a phenomenal performance that might never be surpassed. This record was set by the former West Indies all-rounder in 1992 when he bowled 75 overs over eight matches while allowing just 148 runs and taking 12 wickets. Simmons' extraordinary economy rate is evidence of his bowling brilliance and is still one of the greatest cricket records ever.
9. Sonny Ramadhin- Most Balls Delivered In A Single Innings
The most overs ever bowled by a bowler in a Test match innings belonged to West Indian off-spinner Sonny Ramadhin, who bowled 98 of them against England in 1950. Ramadhin's record cannot be beaten because of the focus placed in today's game on rest and rotation, which makes it extremely impossible that any bowler will be permitted to bowl for such a prolonged time.
10. Rohit Sharma- Three Double Centuries In One Day International (odi)
With three double century in One Day International (ODI) cricket, Rohit Sharma has solidified his reputation as one of the sport's all-time greats. Against Sri Lanka, Australia, and Sri Lanka again, he accomplished this remarkable accomplishment. It's a record that might never be broken since it calls on a specialized mix of talent, perseverance, and chance. Sharma's achievements are evidence of his everlasting dedication to the game and his importance in cricket history.
