← Tons of Consequence

Bill Lawry

13 Test hundreds. Of the 3 we can measure, 0 were tons of consequence. The other 10 are before the ball-by-ball record, so we do not have enough match data yet.

Who against, and where

HundredsTons of consequence
Top tier (England, Australia, India)80
Second tier (New Zealand, South Africa)50

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

  1. 130 v England, Lord's, 1961 · Won

    Not enough match data yet to say.

  2. 102 v England, Manchester, 1961 · Won

    A good ton. He made 24% of the team's runs. On the facts we have, the match didn't hinge on it.

  3. 157 v South Africa, Melbourne, 1964 · Won

    Not enough match data yet to say.

  4. 106 v England, Manchester, 1964 · Drawn

    Not enough match data yet to say.

  5. 210 v West Indies, Bridgetown, 1965 · Drawn

    A good ton. A draw: without a ball-by-ball record we cannot say the hundred saved it.

  6. 166 v England, Brisbane, 1965 · Drawn
