Bradman's record against England has been amazing. He has scored 19 centuries in 63 innings of 37 Tests played against this team. Along with this, he has also scored 12 half-centuries against England. Even today, these are the most centuries scored by any batsman against a single team.
Only former Indian legendary batsman Sunil Gavaskar has come close to Bradman, who has scored 13 centuries in 48 innings of 27 Tests against West Indies. Talking about the current batsmen, Steve Smith has scored 11 centuries against India and Joe Root has scored 10 centuries against India. However, it will be very difficult for both of them to break Bradman's record.

Bradman scored his first 1000 runs in Test cricket slowly, but after that he is still the fastest batsman to reach 2000 to 6000 runs. Bradman completed his 6000 Test runs in the 68th innings itself. After him, the second fastest batsman to score 6000 Test runs is the great Gary Sobers, who took 111 innings for this. Smith has also scored 6000 runs in Tests in 111 innings. Looking at these figures, it can certainly be said that it would be almost impossible for any batsman to reach this record of Bradman.
