← Tons of Consequence

Rohan Kanhai

15 Test hundreds. Of the 12 we can measure, 0 were tons of consequence. The other 3 are before the ball-by-ball record, so we do not have enough match data yet.

Who against, and where

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. 256 v India, Eden Gardens, 1958 · Won
