11 Test hundreds. Of the 10 we can measure, 1 were tons of consequence. The other 1 are before the ball-by-ball record, so we do not have enough match data yet.
Who against, and where
| Hundreds | Tons of consequence | |
|---|---|---|
| Top tier (England, Australia, India) | 5 | 1 |
| Second tier (New Zealand, South Africa) | 1 | 0 |
| Third tier (Sri Lanka, West Indies, Pakistan) | 3 | 0 |
| Other (Bangladesh, Zimbabwe, Ireland, Afghanistan and the rest) | 2 | 0 |
| At home | 6 | 1 |
| Away | 4 | 0 |
The tiers are a fixed grouping of countries, not a rating on the day. Where it was played is only known for the hundreds we have the match record for.
Every hundred
139* v Zimbabwe, Centurion, 2005 · At home · Won
A good ton. His side trailed by 136 when his innings began. He made 29% of the team's runs. The match was won by an innings and 62 runs. On the facts we have, the match didn't hinge on it.
131 v West Indies, St John's, 2005 · Away · Drawn
A good ton. A draw against a lower-tier side: a hundred doesn't save a draw against a side like that.
121 v India, Durban, 2006 · At home · Won
A ton of consequence: rescued the innings. In at 3 for 28, 28 ahead. He made 37% of the team's 328, and no one else came close. The team won by 174 runs. It was a Boxing Day or New Year Test.
119 v Australia, Sydney, 2006 · Away · Lost
A good ton. A loss: even a great hundred can't be a ton of consequence in a defeat.
108* v New Zealand, Cape Town, 2006 · At home · Drawn
A good ton. The match was drawn, and his side was never in danger of losing, so the hundred didn't save anything.
138 v Pakistan, Centurion, 2007 · Won
Not enough match data yet to say.
162* v Bangladesh, Centurion, 2008 · At home · Won
A good ton. He came in comfortably, and the team did not depend on him.
149 v England, Leeds, 2008 · Away · Won
A good ton. He made 28% of the team's runs. The match didn't hinge on it: he came in at 3 for 76.
123* v West Indies, Durban, 2008 · At home · Won
A good ton. He made 22% of the team's runs. The match didn't hinge on it: he came in at 3 for 252.
101 v England, Lord's, 2008 · Away · Drawn
A good ton. A draw, and his side was never in danger of losing, so the hundred didn't save anything.
150 v Australia, Cape Town, 2009 · At home · Won
A good ton. A dead rubber, and his side had already lost the series.
