Sachin Tendulkar

Sachin Tendulkar owns the record for 100 international centuries, a landmark #2 Virat Kohli hasn't reached. He scored 34,357 runs across all formats, including the first-ever ODI double century (200* vs South Africa in 2010). Enduring 24 years from age 16, his 51.73 Test average with 51 centuries underscores unmatched longevity and consistency, cementing his status as cricket's greatest batsman.
