Highest Opening Stands in test cricket history (Most runs made in an opening partnership)

A good opening partnership is the best foundation for any team in any format of the game.

Test cricket is played between international cricket teams who are Full Members of the International Cricket Council (ICC). Unlike One Day Internationals, Test matches consist of two innings per team, with no limit in the number of overs. Test cricket is first-class cricket, so statistics and records set in Test matches are also counted toward first-class records. The duration of Tests, currently limited to five days, has varied through Test history, ranging from three days to timeless matches. The earliest match now recognized as a Test was played between England and Australia in March 1877; since then there have been over 2,000 Tests played by 13 teams. The frequency of Tests has steadily increased partly because of the increase in the number of Test-playing countries, and partly as cricket boards seek to maximize their revenue.

In the sport of cricket, two batsmen always bat in partnership, although only one is a striker at any time. The partnership between two batsmen will come to an end when one of them is dismissed or retires, or the innings comes to a close.

Various statistics may be used to describe a partnership, most notably the number of runs scored during it. This list is only for the opening batsmen scoring highest in a partnership.

Batting in partnership is an important skill. When two higher-order batsmen are together, they are largely free to play to their own styles.

The concept of batting in partnership becomes even more vital once only one recognised quality batsman remains. His job is then to shepherd the tail-end batsmen, while attempting to eke out as many runs as possible, or simply to survive as long as possible when merely attempting to save the game.

This list arguably shows some of the best partnerships in the history of test cricket
