← Tons of Consequence

John Crawley

4 Test hundreds. Of the 3 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)10
Second tier (New Zealand, South Africa)10
Third tier (Sri Lanka, West Indies, Pakistan)10
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. 112 v Zimbabwe, Bulawayo, 1996 · Drawn

    Not enough match data yet to say.

  2. 106 v Pakistan, The Oval, 1996 · Lost

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

  3. 156* v Sri Lanka, The Oval, 1998 · Lost

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

  4. 100* v India, Lord's, 2002 · Won

    A good ton. His side already led by 266 when the innings began. He made 33% of the team's runs. On the facts we have, the match didn't hinge on it.
