5 Test hundreds. Of the 4 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
| Hundreds | Tons of consequence | |
|---|---|---|
| Top tier (England, Australia, India) | 2 | 0 |
| Second tier (New Zealand, South Africa) | 1 | 0 |
| Third tier (Sri Lanka, West Indies, Pakistan) | 2 | 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.
Every hundred
119* v Pakistan, Dhaka, 1969 · Drawn
A good ton. A draw: without a ball-by-ball record we cannot say the hundred saved it.
104 v England, Auckland, 1971 · Drawn
A good ton. A draw: without a ball-by-ball record we cannot say the hundred saved it.
101 v West Indies, Kingston, 1972 · Drawn
A good ton. His side trailed by 340 when his innings began. He made 43% of the team's 236. The match was drawn. On the facts we have, the hundred didn't save the match.
105 v England, Lord's, 1973 · Drawn
Not enough match data yet to say.
111 v Pakistan, Lahore, 1976 · Lost
A good ton. A loss: even a great hundred can't be a ton of consequence in a defeat.
