Test match Records that will never be broken !!

[Maximus0723]

How about Don Bradman's 309 runs in a day?

Definitely possible.

Sehwag came close twice.

I just saw a stat on cricinfo. The record for most wickets in a single day of test cricket was 27, set in 1888. The most in the last 50 years has been 22. If they got that many wickets, they must be amazing bowlers and/or awful batsmen on both teams, plus the pitch doing a fair bit. Chances are the game would be called off before the record could be broken because the pitch wasn't up to test match standards.

If it has lasted 100+ years, chances are it will be around for a while longer.

What about the number of catches dropped by Kamran Akmal? That too is not likely to be broken at international level

Such a gun find.

Reckon he's missed out some pretty good records that won't be broken

Ah okay. I've only skimmed the article, but seems to be the case.

Haven't read the thread in totality, but I don't think Border's record for most consecutive tests will ever be beaten.
