Cricket in 2025 saw several historic firsts, including Bhutan's Sonam Yeshey achieving the first 8-wicket haul in T20I and Indonesia's Gede Priandana taking five wickets in an over. The Nepal vs. Netherlands match was the first men's professional game to reach a third Super Over. Joe Root became the first batter to score 6,000 runs in the ICC World Test Championship, while Mitchell Starc recorded the fastest five-wicket haul in Test cricket history.
