A former New Zealand wicketkeeper-batter, McCullum is arguably the finest to play for the Kiwis. He remains one of the most explosive top-order batters ever. He turns 41 today. We look at his records.
McCullum is still New Zealand’s leading run-scorer in T20 cricket, having finished with 9,922 runs at a strike rate of 136.49. He slammed seven tons and 55 half-centuries in the format.
McCullum represented New Zealand in 101 Tests, 260 ODIs, and 71 T20Is. The right-handed batter slammed 6,453, 6,083, and 2,140 in the three formats, respectively. He scored 19 international hundreds.
McCullum is one of four batters to have scored a Test triple-century batting at number five or below. Michael Clarke (329*), Sir Don Bradman (304), and Karun Nair (303*) are the only other batters.
McCullum owns a 6-1 win-loss record since taking over as England's Test coach in May 2022. England have played a ferocious brand of cricket, to the extent that any target seems well within the reach.
