Brendan Taylor Surpasses Sachin Tendulkar for Longest Men's ODI Career
Zimbabwe veteran Brendan Taylor has surpassed Sachin Tendulkar's record for the longest men's ODI career, extending his span to over 22 years and 146 days since his 2004 debut. Taylor, who retired in 2021 and served a three-and-a-half-year ICC suspension before returning in 2025, has played 207 ODIs with 11 centuries, holding Zimbabwe's record for ODI centuries. While Taylor now holds the longevity record, Tendulkar remains the leading ODI run-scorer and has played the most matches.
