In the sport of cricket, playing 100 Test matches is considered to be a significant achievement. Colin Cowdrey of England was the first cricketer to have reached this landmark,[1] celebrating the occasion with a score of 104 runs against Australia in 1968 during the 1968 Ashes series.[2] In February 2021, Joe Root played his 100th Test during England's tour of India, in which he became the quickest player to reach that landmark,[3] and the first to score a double century in their 100th Test.[4]

Sachin Tendulkar of India has played the most matches (200).
