No mate, good guess though - but two men have made higher scores after the age of 40.

No mate.
Did really make that score aged 49? I always thought Hobbs at 46 was the oldest Test centurion?

No, I don't have the scorecards in front of me but I'm pretty sure Cowdrey didn't make a ton that series. Batted with extreme courage against Lillee and Thommo at their fastest though.

Gordon Greenwich's 226 against Aus in 1991 at 40?
Edit: Damn, he was 39, and would have been 40 in 1 week

Here's a hint though - even if he'd been 40, that 226 would still only be in second place...

Well I am unsure if it was a Test or a Gentlemen vs Players game now..the old memory is dimming with ageNo mate.

Dudley scored 211 - but I think you're quoting his father Dave's birthdate!
