3 Test hundreds. Of the 2 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.

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. 149 v Australia, The Oval, 1975 · Drawn

    A good ton. His side trailed by 341 when his innings began. He made 28% of the team's 538. The match was drawn. On the facts we have, the hundred didn't save the match.

  2. 137 v Australia, Manchester, 1977 · Won

    A ton of consequence: rescued the innings. His side trailed by 297 when the innings began. He made 31% of the team's 437. The team won by 9 wickets. A slow grind at 41 runs per 100 balls.

  3. 120 v Australia, Lord's, 1977 · Drawn

    Not enough match data yet to say.
