Can these 5 records of the cricket world ever break!

It is often said about records in sports that records are made because they will be broken sometime. The same thing applies with the game of cricket. There are many records about which it is often said that no one will be able to break such a record.

For example, take the example of Sachin Tendulkar's unique hundred century made in international cricket a few years ago. It was thought that no one would even get close to it, but after just 6 years, now it seems that breaking this record for Virat Kohli is just a formality.

Despite this, there are some selected records in cricket that have been out of reach of anyone for more than a century. It seems that hardly anyone can challenge these records in future.

Test debut at age 49

Yes, it is not only difficult to do this in today's era. If a player is not active in first-class cricket for 45 years, then how will he make a test debut in 49 years? When England and Australia played the Test for the first time in 1877, the age of an English player was 49 years and 119 days. In the last 30 years, South Africa's Omar Henry played the first Test at the age of 40 and this was due to South Africa's return to Test cricket after several decades.

30-year test career

Sachin Tendulkar made his Test debut as a teenager and played the Test till the age of 40, yet his career was only 24 years old. If Tendulkar could not break the record of Wilfred Rhodes' 30-year Test career, then hardly anyone else would be able to do it. Rhodes, who played 58 Tests, was 53 years old in his last match, which no one seems to dare to break in modern times! The reason for this is that in the T20 era, the tests are becoming less anyway and if the players first boy-boy any one format, then it is the test format.

The only double test

How difficult it is to take a hat-trick in Test cricket, this shows that so far only 44 bowlers have shown this feat. H Trumble of Australia took a hat-trick 2 times. Wasim Akram went one step further and took a hat-trick in two consecutive tests. But, Australia's T.J. Matthews (TJ Mathews) not only took two hat-tricks in a single test, which is an amazing record in itself, but more than that, his hat-trick even though it happened in two different innings but on 1 day! Now you can tell that one can beat so many coincidences together!

19 wickets in a Test cricket

Anil Kumble equaled Jim Lekar's record of taking all 10 wickets in an innings, but no one has even reached the record of taking 19 wickets in the entire match. Test cricket is far away, even in first class cricket, the feat of reaching 18 wickets happened almost 6 decades ago. So can you expect that in our lifetime, one can even match this record of taking gym in Test cricket?

Bradman's record for most runs in Test series

Don Bradman means an amazing test average of 99.94, which hardly anyone can break. But, we do not discuss that natural record and do that record which gets the attention of very few people. Bradman scored 974 runs during the Ashes series in 1930, which no one has reached near the break.

Since then 7 batsmen have scored 800 or more runs in a series, out of which Bradman himself was twice, but he too could not get close to breaking his record! The last time in 1989 was Mark Taylor's 839 runs in a series that crossed the 800 mark. The first thing is that now the 5-match Test series is almost extinct and in such a situation, breaking this record is almost impossible!
