Who against, and where

HundredsTons of consequence

Second tier (New Zealand, South Africa)10

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. 120 v South Africa, Cape Town, 1889 · Won

    A good ton. He made 41% of the team's runs. On the facts we have, the match didn't hinge on it.

  2. 132* v Australia, Sydney, 1892 · Lost

    A good ton. A loss: even a great hundred can't be a ton of consequence in a defeat.
