Five records of Sachin Tendulkar that are nearly impossible to break
Highest Test appereances
Sachin Tendulkar played a staggering 200 matches in his Test career. He is the only player to have achieved the milestone of reaching the double century mark in terms of appereances in the longest format in his international career. The next best is England's James Anderson, who has so far played 169 Tests in his career.
Most centuries in Test cricket
Sachin Tendulkar holds the record for most centuries in Test cricket by any batter in the world. The Master Blaster slammed a stunning 51 centuries in the whites and his record is likely to stay as no one has managed to come close to the feat. South African great Jacques Kallis is at the second spot with 45 tons to his name.
Among active cricketers, Virat Kohli and Steve Smith are closest to Sachin's record with 27 centuries each in Tests.
Most runs in international cricket
Sachin Tendulkar is not only the leading run-getter in ODIs but also in Test cricket which also makes him the leading run-getter of all time in international cricket. Sachin has a total of 34357 runs in international cricket, a figure that is unlikely to be surpassed anytime soon. Virat Kohli is closest to Sachin's record among active batters with 23650 across formats so far.
Most fours in Tests
Sachin Tendulkar also holds the record for smashing most number of fours in the longest format. He scored a whopping 2058 fours in Tests with Rahul Dravid being the second best at 1654 fours. None of the active batters are even close to Sachin's elsuive record.
Most fifty-plus scores in international cricket
Sachin Tendulkar notched up a stunning 264 fifty-plus scores in internatonal cricket across formats - the most by any batter in the world. His record is likely to remain intact as it is a difficult one to surpass for any batter in the current era.
