Cricket is considered to be the second most popular sport after football. There is some or the other big tournament/league of cricket, in which every day some or the other record is made. And one or the other record keeps getting broken. Many players make such records which were not even imagined to be made. But some such world records are already recorded in cricket history, which are not only difficult to break but are considered impossible. Many bowlers and batsmen have made such records in the history of cricket on the basis of their own skills, due to which their names have been written in golden letters, so in today’s report, we will tell you about those top 10 records.
Sachin Tendulkar
In the name of Sachin Tendulkar, who is called the God of cricket, there are many records which are difficult to break. But in today’s cricket era, some successful cricketers are breaking some minor records of Sachin. But Sachin has also recorded many big records, one of which is the highest run scorer in ODI cricket. Sachin Tendulkar has scored 18426 runs in ODI cricket. At the moment, it seems impossible to break this record, the current players are far behind in this list. And Sachin Tendulkar is also at the forefront of the list of runs scored in Test cricket.
Muttiah Muralitharan
Sri Lankan spinner bowler Muttiah Muralitharan also has a record in cricket history which is considered impossible to break. Like Sachin Tendulkar’s name comes on the record of scoring the most runs in cricket. Similarly, the record of taking the most wickets in cricket is in the name of Muttiah Muralitharan. Muttiah Muralitharan has taken 1347 wickets in his cricket career as a result Muttiah Muralitharan comes first in the list of highest wicket takers in cricket history and comes second in this list.

And Rohit Sharma is the first Indian player who has scored three double centuries in ODIs, which now seems like an impossible record. At the present time, it can also be said that perhaps Rohit Sharma himself might not be able to break this record of scoring the most runs in an innings.
Misbah-ul-Haq

Misbah-ul-Haq played 162 ODIs in his cricket career, in which he scored 5122 runs at a strike rate of 43.41. But the thing to note here is that he was unfortunate that he could never score a century in ODIs. Among the current players, every batsman has scored a century in ODIs in his career, so hardly any batsman will be able to break this record.
