Wiaan Mulder (L) and Yashasvi Jaiswal (R) (Source: X)Scoring a triple century in Tests, cricket's longest format, is a major achievement for batters. Achieving more than one triple century is an even rarer feat. A few batters in Test history have reached two triple centuries, including Don Bradman, Brian Lara, Virender Sehwag, and Chris Gayle. However, no one has yet achieved three triple centuries in Tests. Nonetheless, some currently active batters have a knack for triple tons in the longest format. Therefore, here, we’ll have a look at the 5 players who can score 3 triple centuries in Tests. 5 Players who can score 3 triple centuries in Tests Harry Brook - England England’s dynamic middle-order batter, Harry Brook, stands out among active Test players. He exemplifies England’s Bazball approach, marked by aggressive batting in the traditional format. In 35 Tests, he has scored 3,178 runs in 60 innings at an average of 54.79, with 10 centuries and 15 half-centuries. His record includes a 317 off 322 balls against Pakistan in Multan in 2024. Brook is one of the top contenders to achieve the milestone of triple centuries in the Tests. Wiaan Mulder - South AfricaSouth Africa’s batting all-rounder Wiaan Mulder has played just 24 Tests in nearly seven years. Still, he impresses with 1,253 runs in 40 innings at an average of 35.80, including three centuries and a half-century. Mulder holds the highest individual Test score among current players. The 27-year-old scored an unbeaten 367 against Zimbabwe in Bulawayo, also captaining the Proteas in that series. Mulder also made it to the headlines for declaring the innings at his individual score of 367 runs as a token of respect to the former legendary Caribbean batter Brian Lara. He further explained that he didn’t want to surpass Lara’s legendary record of an unbeaten 400-run knock. Shubman Gill - IndiaIndia's star batter and captain, Shubman Gill, is a standout Test talent. In 40 Tests, he has 2,843 runs in 73 innings at an average of 43.07, with 10 centuries and eight half-centuries. It also includes his highest individual Test knock of 269 runs against England in England. Gill can also be one of the few batters who are capable of hitting three triple tons in the longest format of the game, considering his brilliant run of form. Gill getting a chance to bat at number four can also provide him with enough chances to achieve one of the rarest milestones in Test cricket.Yashasvi Jaiswal - India The young swashbuckling India opener, Yashasvi Jaiswal, has left everyone amazed with a sensational start to his Test career. He has the outstanding numbers in the 28 Tests he has played for India. In these games, Jaiswal has scored 2,511 runs in 53 innings at a 49.23 average, with seven centuries and 13 half-centuries, including back-to-back double hundreds against England in 2024. Besides that, Jaiswal holds the record of hitting the most sixes in a Test series, with 26 sixes in the five-match Test series against England in 2024. Looking at his potential and ability to accelerate after a century, Jaiswal can also become the first batter to hit three triple hundreds in the Tests. Travis Head - AustraliaThe blistering Australia opener, Travis Head, has been in a ‘form of his life’ across all formats for the last few years. Speaking of Tests. He is the leading run-scorer in the Tests since January 1, 2025, with 993 runs in 23 innings, with an average of 45.14, hitting three centuries and three half-centuries. He was also a leading run-scorer in the Ashes 2025-26, which concluded earlier this month. The explosive southpaw scored 629 runs in 10 innings of the five Tests, with an astonishing average of 62.90, including three centuries. Head is known for converting his quick starts into the big knocks in the longest format of the game. He could also be a batter to smash three triple centuries in the Tests, considering his recent form and the years he has left in him to play in this format.
