Adam Gilchrist holds the record for playing the most number of Tests straight after debut.
He played 96 Test matches between 5 th November 1999 and 24 th January 2008 without dropping out from any of them.
Interestingly, Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium was never designed to play cricket! The venue of the Asia Cup 2016 finals was originally a football and athletics stadium! It was constructed in the late ‘80s and even hosted the 1987 Asian Club Championship. It was in 2004 that the Bangladesh Cricket Board took it over and made it home to the women’s and men’s national cricket team.
