The first Test of the 2008–09 series against Sri Lanka saw Pakistan set their highest innings total of 765/5d, the fifth-highest score in Test cricket.{{cite news|title=Test records – Highest innings totals|url=http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/records/283966.html|work=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=3 December 2017|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180104034703/http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/records/283966.html|archive-date=4 January 2018}}

=Result records=

A Test match is won when one side has scored more runs than the total runs scored by the opposing side during their two innings. If both sides have completed both their allocated innings and the side that fielded last has the higher aggregate of runs, it is known as a win by runs. This indicates the number of runs that they had scored more than the opposing side. If one side scores more runs in a single innings than the total runs scored by the other side in both their innings, it is known as a win by innings and runs. If the side batting last wins the match, it is known as a win by wickets, indicating the number of wickets that were still to fall.{{cite web|url=http://www.lords.org/laws-and-spirit/laws-of-cricket/laws/law-21-the-result,47,AR.html |title=Law 21 (The Result) |publisher=Marylebone Cricket Club |access-date=20 March 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100221063656/http://www.lords.org/laws-and-spirit/laws-of-cricket/laws/law-21-the-result%2C47%2CAR.html |archive-date=21 February 2010 }}

==Narrowest loss margins (by wickets)==

Test cricket has seen fifteen matches been decided by a margin of one wicket, with Pakistan being defeated twice, both coming against West Indies. The first was the final Test of the 1999–2000 series at Antigua Recreation Ground where the West Indies ran down the target of 216 runs in the final inning and the second happened in the opening test of the 2021 series at Sabina Park where the last wicket pair scored the last 17 runs to chase down 168.{{cite news|title=Pakistan tour of West Indies 2000, 1st Test: West Indies v Pakistan at St. John's, 25–29 May 2000|url=https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/63882.html|work=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=30 August 2017}}{{cite news|title=1st Test, Kingston, Aug 12 - 15 2021, Pakistan tour of West Indies|url=https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/1263169.html|work=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=15 August 2021}}

A bowler takes the wicket of a batsman when the form of dismissal is bowled, caught, leg before wicket, stumped or hit wicket. If the batsman is dismissed by run out, obstructing the field, handling the ball, hitting the ball twice or timed out the bowler does not receive credit.{{citation needed|date=September 2017}}

A bowler's bowling figures in a match is sum of the wickets taken and the runs conceded in two innings.{{citation needed|date=September 2017}}

No bowler in the history of Test cricket has taken all 20 wickets in a match. The closest to do so was English spin bowler Jim Laker. During the fourth Test of the 1956 Ashes series, Laker took 9/37 in the first innings and 10/53 in the second to finish with match figures of 19/90. Imran Khan's figures of 14/119, taken in final match of the 1981–82 Test series against Sri Lanka, is the sixteenth-best in Test cricket history.{{cite news|title=Test records – Best bowling figures in a match|url=http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/records/283211.html|work=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=4 September 2017}}

==Most wickets in a series==

South Africa's seventh Test tour of England in 1913–14 saw the record set for the most wickets taken by a bowler in a Test series. English paceman Sydney Barnes played in four of the five matches and achieved a total of 49 wickets to his name. Jim Laker sits second on the list with 46 wickets taken during the 1956 Ashes series. Pakistan's Imran Khan is seventh with his 40 wickets taken against India during the 1982–83 tour.{{cite news|title=Test records – Most wickets in a series|url=http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/records/122207.html|work=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=5 September 2017|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160902032420/http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/records/122207.html|archive-date=2 September 2016}}

==Hat-trick==

In cricket, a hat-trick occurs when a bowler takes three wickets with consecutive deliveries. The deliveries may be interrupted by an over bowled by another bowler from the other end of the pitch or the other team's innings, but must be three consecutive deliveries by the individual bowler in the same match. Only wickets attributed to the bowler count towards a hat-trick; run outs do not count.

In Test cricket history there have been just 44 hat-tricks, the first achieved by Fred Spofforth for Australia against England in 1879. In 1912, Australian Jimmy Matthews achieved the feat twice in one game against South Africa. The only other players to achieve two hat-tricks are Australia's Hugh Trumble, against England in 1902 and 1904, Pakistan's Wasim Akram, in separate games against Sri Lanka in 1999, and England's Stuart Broad.

    =Fielding records=

    ==Most career catches==

    Caught is one of the ten methods a batsman can be dismissed in cricket. A fair catch is defined as a fielder catches the ball, from a legal delivery, fully within the field of play without it bouncing when the ball has touched the striker's bat or glove holding the bat. The majority of catches are caught in the slips, located behind the batsman, next to the wicket-keeper, on the off side of the field. Most slip fielders are top order batsmen.{{cite journal|first=Mike|last=Selvey|title=The greatest slip catcher|url=http://www.thecricketmonthly.com/story/863595/the-greatest-slip-catcher|journal=The Cricket Monthly|date=May 2015|access-date=14 October 2017|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170417155213/http://www.thecricketmonthly.com/story/863595/the-greatest-slip-catcher|archive-date=17 April 2017}}

    India's Rahul Dravid holds the record for the most catches in Test cricket by a non-wicket-keeper with 210, followed by Mahela Jayawardene of Sri Lanka on 205 and South African Jacques Kallis with 200.

    Partnership records

    In cricket, two batsman are always present at the crease batting together in a partnership. This partnership will continue until one of them is dismissed, retires or the innings comes to a close.

    =Highest partnerships by wicket=

    A wicket partnership describes the number of runs scored before each wicket falls. The first wicket partnership is between the opening batsman and continues until the first wicket falls. The second wicket partnership then commences between the not out batsman and the number three batsman. This partnership continues until the second wicket falls. The third wicket partnership then commences between the not out batsman and the new batsman. This continues down to tenth wicket partnership. When the eleventh wicket has fallen, there is no more batsman left so the innings is closed.

    =Highest partnerships by runs=

    The highest Test partnership by runs for any wicket is held by the Sri Lankan pairing of Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardene who put together a third wicket partnership of 624 runs during the first Test against South Africa in July 2006. This broke the record of 576 runs set by their compatriots Sanath Jayasuriya and Roshan Mahanama against India in 1997. New Zealand's Andrew Jones and Martin Crowe hold the third-highest Test partnership with 467 made in 1991 against Sri Lanka. Equal fourth on the list is Mudassar Nazar and Javed Miandad of Pakistan who together scored 451 against Pakistan in 1983 and the Australian pairing of Bill Ponsford and Don Bradman putting on the same score against England in the 1934 Ashes series.{{cite news|title=Test records – Highest partnerships by runs|url=http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/records/283573.html|work=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=16 October 2017}}
