Harry Kane is scheduled to make his 125th appearance for the England men’s national team during Tuesday night's match against Czechia at Wembley. This selection marks a significant milestone, as it draws the striker level with former goalkeeper Peter Shilton, who held the record for the most caps earned by a male player for England since his retirement in 1990.

Kane, who debuted for the national team in March 2015, has maintained a high frequency of play, having been selected to start his fourth international match in just 13 days. Beyond his appearance record, Kane currently holds the England record for the most goals scored, with a total of 89. His recent form has been productive, contributing four goals during the current international window.

While Kane’s achievement is historic for the men's side, it remains distinct from the broader national team records. Seven women have surpassed the 125-cap threshold for England, with Fara Williams holding the overall record at 172 appearances. Shilton’s record, which Kane is now matching, was established over a 20-year career spanning from 1970 to 1990.
