List of Test cricket records

[1] Unlike One Day Internationals, Test matches consist of two innings per team, with no limit in the number of overs.

Australian Donald Bradman, widely considered the greatest batsman of all time,[8][9] holds several personal and partnership records.

Indian leg spinner Anil Kumble was the second bowler to take 10 wickets in an innings, claiming 10–74 against Pakistan in 1999.

Sri Lankan spinner Muttiah Muralitharan became the highest Test wicket-taker in December 2007, when he passed Shane Warne's total of 708 wickets.

[17] Within a year, the equivalent batting record of highest run-scorer had also changed hands: Sachin Tendulkar surpassed the tally of 11,953 runs by Brian Lara.
