← Tons of Consequence

Matt Horne

4 Test hundreds. Of the 3 we can measure, 1 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)20
Other (Bangladesh, Zimbabwe, Ireland, Afghanistan and the rest)21

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. 133 v Australia, Hobart, 1997 · Drawn

    A good ton. A dead rubber (the series was already decided) that his side did not win.

  2. 157 v Zimbabwe, Auckland, 1998

    Not enough match data yet to say.

  3. 100 v England, Lord's, 1999 · Won

    A good ton. He made 28% of the team's runs. On the facts we have, the match didn't hinge on it.

  4. 110 v Zimbabwe, Bulawayo, 2000 · Won

    A ton of consequence: rescued the innings. His side trailed by 350 when the innings began. He made 33% of the team's 338. The team won by 7 wickets. A slow grind at 40 runs per 100 balls.
