This is a list of Test cricket records; that is, record team and individual performances in Test cricket. Records for the short form of international cricket, One Day Internationals, are at List of One-Day International cricket records.

Cricket is, by its nature, capable of generating large numbers of records and statistics. Test cricket has been played since 1877 with essentially the same rules as are played today, and therefore many comparisons can be made of teams and individuals through these records.

Contents

In general the top five are listed in each category (except when there is a tie for the last place among the five, when all the tied record holders are noted).

Team notation
  • (300-3) indicates that a team scored 300 runs for three wickets and the innings was closed, either due to a successful run chase or if no playing time remained.
  • (300-3 d) indicates that a team scored 300 runs for three wickets, and declared its innings closed.
  • (300) indicates that a team scored 300 runs and was all out.
