The Three Lions skipper marked the occasion with an emphatic double against Finland.
And on his return to club action, he continued his hot streak with another treble as Bayern thrashed Holstein Kiel 6-1 away.
Jamal Musiala got the party started in northern Germany after just 14 seconds before Kane and an own goal made it 3-0 within 13 minutes.
Kane found the bottom corner for his second and Bayern's fourth just before the break.

After Michael Olise's sweet strike and a consolation for the hosts, Kane stepped up from the penalty spot in injury time to complete the rout and his hat-trick.
Incredibly, that was the Englishman's fifth treble in the Bundesliga, despite only arriving in Germany just over a year ago from Tottenham.
However, it was another record that Kane snatched from superstar goal machine Haaland.
His performance at Holstein Kiel saw the Bayern man bring up his 50th goal contribution in the Bundesliga in just 35 appearances in the division.

Former Borussia Dortmund hitman Haaland did hold the previous record with 43 games but Kane has now obliterated it with his lightning start to life in Germany.
Haaland, though, will not be too upset.
'Are you seriously talking about that?' - Jack Grealish told off by England interviewer after being asked about Kane
He maintained his phenomenal start to the season with another two goals as Manchester City came from behind to beat Brentford.
Haaland has now scored nine goals in four Premier League appearances this term - including back-to-back hat-tricks against Ipswich and West Ham.
But breaking Haaland's record was not the end of Kane's historic afternoon's work.
His early finish ensured he has now scored against all 18 different teams he has faced in Germany's top flight.
In Bundesliga history, only Miroslav Klose has faced more opponents and found the net against them all.
The Germany icon did so against a whopping 28 clubs during his illustrious career.

Harry Kane reveals his favourite England goals
HARRY KANE is already England's all-time record goalscorer.
But the Three Lions skipper will NOT be stopping there.
To mark his 100th cap for his country, Kane spoke to SunSport's CHARLIE WYETT about some of his special England goals....
FIRST ENGLAND GOAL
“My debut v Lithuania. March 2015.
"There was a lot of talk in the build-up to that camp because I was playing well for Spurs.
“I got a great reception and within a couple of minutes I scored a goal.
“I don’t think I could have dreamed it any better.
“My friends and family were there. That was a really special night.”
FAVOURITE ENGLAND GOAL
“It’s between two, for me.
“Against Germany, the one at Wembley in Euro 2020.
“Also, the header against Tunisia at the World Cup in 2018.
“That moment of scoring a last-minute winner at my first World Cup was special.”
BEST ENGLAND GOAL
“The one I scored in Poland away in a World Cup qualifier in 2021. It was from 25 yards.”
(Kane picked up the ball from Kyle Walker, advanced towards goal and put his foot through it.)
“It kind of drifted away and it was a good strike, probably my furthest-out goal for England.”
