Sachin Tendulkar has scored the most runs in ODI International cricket (18426). Virat Kohli is chasing this great record of Tendulkar. Kohli has scored 14180 runs in 301 ODIs. But he is still far away from Sachin's great record of runs. It is difficult to break this great record of Sachin. Australian legend Don Bradman's batting average of 99.94 in Tests can hardly be broken by any batsman. This record has been unbroken for years. England's Jack Hobbs has 61760 runs in first class cricket. He has scored a record 199 centuries in first class cricket.

Former England bowler Jim Laker has taken 19 wickets in a Test match which is a world record. Laker made this record in the year 1956. To break this record, the bowler will have to take 10 wickets each in both innings i.e. a total of 20 wickets, which is impossible. Sri Lanka's legendary spinner Muttiah Muralitharan has taken 1347 wickets in international cricket which is a world record. It is not easy to break this record in the present times.

Sri Lankan fast bowler Chaminda Vaas holds the record of taking 8 wickets in an ODI match. He set this record in 2001 in which he took 8 wickets for 19 runs, while West Indies' Phil Simmons took 4 wickets for just 3 runs in 10 overs, bowling 8 maiden overs in an ODI against Pakistan, which is still a record. Windies' ace batsman Chris Gayle's IPL century in 30 balls is the fastest century in T20. It also seems difficult to break this record. The record of scoring the most runs in a Test match is held by England's Graham Gooch, who scored a total of 456 runs in 1990. He scored 333 runs in the first innings and 123 runs in the second innings. It is difficult for today's batsmen to break Gooch's record.
