8 Test hundreds. Of the 3 we can measure, 0 were tons of consequence. The other 5 are before the ball-by-ball record, so we do not have enough match data yet.
Who against, and where
| Hundreds | Tons of consequence | |
|---|---|---|
| Top tier (England, Australia, India) | 1 | 0 |
| Second tier (New Zealand, South Africa) | 7 | 0 |
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.

Not enough match data yet to say.
137 v New Zealand, Lord's, 1931 · Drawn
A good ton. A draw: without a ball-by-ball record we cannot say the hundred saved it.
103 v New Zealand, Christchurch, 1933 · Drawn
Not enough match data yet to say.
120 v Australia, Lord's, 1934 · Won
