← Tons of Consequence

Jimmy Adams

6 Test hundreds. Of the 5 we can measure, 0 were tons of consequence. The other 1 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)30
Second tier (New Zealand, South Africa)20
Other (Bangladesh, Zimbabwe, Ireland, Afghanistan and the rest)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. 174* v India, Mohali, 1994 · Lost

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

  2. 137 v England, Georgetown, 1994 · Won

    Not enough match data yet to say.

  3. 125* v India, Nagpur, 1994 · Drawn

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

  4. 151 v New Zealand, Wellington, 1995 · Won

    A good ton. He made 23% of the team's runs. On the facts we have, the match didn't hinge on it.

  5. 208* v New Zealand, St John's, 1996 · Drawn

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

  6. 101* v Zimbabwe, Kingston, 2000 · Won

    A good ton. His side trailed by 308 when his innings began. He made 30% of the team's 339. The match was won by 10 wickets. On the facts we have, the match didn't hinge on it.
