Every hundred

  1. 114 v South Africa, Manchester, 1912 · Won

    Not measured. His side won, but we don’t have the score when he came in or where the series stood, so we can’t say whether the hundred was needed. The ball-by-ball record is patchy before 2006.

  2. 102 v South Africa, Lord's, 1912

    Not measured. We don’t have the result of this match yet.

  3. 147 v England, Adelaide, 1921 · Won

    A ton of consequence: set up the win. His side trailed by 93 when the innings began. He made 25% of the team's 582. The team won by 119 runs. A slow grind at 36 runs per 100 balls.
