Cricket Records: There are 3 world records, which have been described as the biggest wonder in cricket history. It is also difficult to dream of breaking these 3 world records. These 3 world records include 286 runs on one ball, 10 wickets in a Test innings and double centuries in four innings of Test cricket etc.
Let’s take a look at who made these 3 unique world records and how-
1. 286 runs on a ball
In Western Australia, something happened during a match played between Victoria and ‘Scratch XI’ on 15 January 1894 that no one can think. In this match, Victoria batsmen together scored 286 runs on a ball. Actually, on the very first ball of this match, the batsman hit such a long shot that the ball went and got stuck on a tree, by then the batsmen had run 286 runs.
2. 10 wickets in a Test innings
England legendary bowler Jim, India’s great spinner Anil Kumble and New Zealand’s Dhakad spinner Ejaz Patel have taken 10 wickets in a Test innings. In any one innings of Test cricket, the record of taking 10 wickets can only be equal, it can never be broken.
3. Dual century in four innings of Test cricket
Sunil Gavaskar is the only batsman in the world who has scored a double century in all four innings of Test cricket. Sunil Gavaskar holds a record of 205 runs in the first innings of Test cricket, 236 not out in the second innings, 220 runs in the third innings and 221 runs in the fourth innings. This record of scoring a double century in all four innings of Test cricket is impossible for any batsman to break. Even after 42 years, this record of Sunil Gavaskar has not been able to break any batsman in the world. Sunil Gavaskar did this amazing from 1971 to 1983. Sunil Gavaskar scored a double century against the West Indies in the first, second and third innings. At the same time, he scored a double century in the fourth innings against England.
