Cricket's Immortals: Five International Records That May Never Be Broken

These records belong to legends like Muttiah Muralitharan, Sachin Tendulkar, Rohit Sharma, Don Bradman, and Jason Gillespie.

There are several records in international cricket that are not just difficult but almost impossible to break.

Let’s take a look at five such iconic records, which have stood the test of time and are unlikely to be surpassed. These records belong to legends like Muttiah Muralitharan, Sachin Tendulkar, Rohit Sharma, Don Bradman, and Jason Gillespie.

Five Unbreakable International Records

1. Australian cricketer Jason Gillespie set the record for the highest score by a nightwatchman in 2006, a feat that remains unparalleled. Gillespie scored a double century against Bangladesh, amassing 206 runs. In today’s fast-paced cricket, such a record seems nearly impossible to break.

2. India’s legendary batsman Sachin Tendulkar has created several records that are incredibly difficult to surpass. However, his record of scoring 100 international centuries stands out as the most remarkable and nearly unbreakable milestone.

3. The record for the most wickets in Test cricket is held by Sri Lanka’s legendary spinner Muttiah Muralitharan. He claimed 800 wickets in just 133 Test matches. Breaking Muralitharan’s record would be an enormous challenge for any bowler in the current era.

4. Australia’s iconic batsman Don Bradman holds the record for the highest batting average in Test cricket. His staggering average of 99.94 is a statistical marvel and considered virtually impossible to match or break, even by today’s best batters.

5. Indian batting star Rohit Sharma has also etched his name into the record books by achieving a feat no other batsman has matched in ODIs. He has scored a double century not once, but three times in One Day Internationals. Given how rare even a single double century is in this format, Rohit’s record is truly extraordinary and unlikely to be broken easily.
