Bill Brown
4 Test hundreds. Of the 3 we can measure, 0 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) | 3 | 0 |
| Second tier (New Zealand, South Africa) | 1 | 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
105 v England, Lord's, 1934 · Lost
A good ton. A loss: even a great hundred can't be a ton of consequence in a defeat.
121 v South Africa, Cape Town, 1936 · Won
A good ton. He made 33% of the team's runs. On the facts we have, the match didn't hinge on it.
206* v England, Lord's, 1938 · Drawn
A good ton. The match was drawn. A draw in which his side was not behind when the innings began, so it was not in danger of losing.
133 v England, Nottingham, 1938 · Drawn
Not enough match data yet to say.
