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 Zimbabwe, Bulawayo, 2017 · Away · Drawn

    A good ton. A draw against a lower-tier side: a hundred doesn't save a draw against a side like that.

  2. 125* v Sri Lanka, Port of Spain, 2018 · At home · Won

    A ton of consequence: carried the innings. In at 4 for 134, 134 ahead. He made 30% of the team's 414, and no one else came close. The team won by 226 runs. He added 102 for the 7th wicket. A slow grind at 38 runs per 100 balls.

  3. 116* v England, Bridgetown, 2019 · At home · Won

    A good ton. His side already led by 273 when the innings began. He made 28% of the team's runs. The match didn't hinge on it: he came in at 5 for 61.
