Only one player in the history of the game has batted 100 or more innings in the top 6 and scored fewer than Shane Watson's mighty tally of 4 Test centuries. Name that player.

176 for me, again the 85 series was the big fail, had not even heard of a couple of those.

149. Apparently people other than Allan Border scored tons in the 1980s, which I didn't know about. I probably should have got Broad, missed Stewart at the MCG as well, which was the more recent one I missed. Forgot about the likes of Blewit, Boon and Gatting.

Half of them would've been at Perth in 06. Can only remember three of the dismissals in that game though.

eight out of the fourteen were, yes, but can you name them

panesar has an awful ashes bowling record actually, tbh out of his six matches only five yielded any wickets, and even then two of those were only one wicket each.

ave 53.64

sr 83.7

econ 3.84

remember statsguru-ing is cheating
