This is a list of Test cricket triple centuries; that is, a list of the batsmen who have scored 300 runs or more in a single innings in Test cricket. A triple century has been scored in Test cricket on 20 occasions by eighteen different batsmen from six of the ten Test-cricket playing nations. No player from Bangladesh, New Zealand, South Africa or Zimbabwe has scored over 300, although Martin Crowe of New Zealand was dismissed for 299 playing against Sri Lanka in 1991.
The first Test triple century was achieved by Andy Sandham of England against West Indies in 1930, and the most recent was scored by Chris Gayle of the West Indies against South Africa in 2005. The probability of a batsman scoring a Test triple century is comparable to that of a bowler taking a Test hat-trick.
Brian Lara of the West Indies and Donald Bradman of Australia are the only batsmen to score 300 runs or more on more than one occasion. In addition, Bradman scored 299 not out against South Africa in 1932. One of Lara's triple centuries, 400 not out against England in 2004, is the highest score in Test cricket and the only instance of a Test quadruple century.
