← Tons of Consequence

Reg Simpson

4 Test hundreds. Of the 2 we can measure, 0 were tons of consequence. The other 2 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)20
Third tier (Sri Lanka, West Indies, Pakistan)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. 103 v New Zealand, Manchester, 1949 · Drawn

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

  2. 156* v Australia, Melbourne, 1951 · Lost

    Not enough match data yet to say.

  3. 137 v South Africa, Nottingham, 1951 · Lost

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

  4. 101 v Pakistan, Nottingham, 1954 · Won

    Not enough match data yet to say.
