The article discusses how Harry Kane is poised to break Peter Shilton's record for most caps in England national team history. Kane will match Shilton’s 125 caps during an upcoming match against the Czech Republic, potentially surpassing it soon after, barring any fitness issues. The piece also notes that while Kane would become the men’s top cap collector, several players from the women’s national team already hold more caps overall.

Story summary
Harry Kane is set to break Peter Shilton's record for most caps in an England national team career, which has stood since 1990. Kane will match the 125-cap mark when he plays against the Czech Republic and could surpass it soon after, potentially within weeks, depending on his fitness and upcoming matches, including a game against Spain three days later. Shilton accumulated his caps over two decades, while several other England greats like David Beckham, Steven Gerrard, Ashley Cole, Frank Lampard, and Wayne Rooney have surpassed 100 caps since then. However, even if Kane reaches the 126th cap milestone, he would not be England's most-capped player overall, as several women's national team players (Lionesses) like Fara Williams (172 caps), Jill Scott, Lucy Bronze, Karen Carney, Alex Scott, Casey Stoney, and Rachel Yankey have more appearances.
