Every hundred

  1. 156 v India, Southampton, 2014 · At home · Won

    A good ton. He made 27% of the team's runs. The match didn't hinge on it: he came in at 1 for 55.

  2. 110 v India, Lord's, 2014 · At home · Lost

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

  3. 104* v Sri Lanka, Lord's, 2014 · At home · Drawn

    A good ton. A draw against a lower-tier side: a hundred doesn't save a draw against a side like that.

  4. 122 v West Indies, North Sound, 2015 · Away · Drawn

    A good ton. A draw against a lower-tier side: a hundred doesn't save a draw against a side like that.

  5. 137* v West Indies, Bulawayo, 2023 · At home · Drawn

    A good ton. A draw against a lower-tier side: a hundred doesn't save a draw against a side like that.
