Which amongst these was the better ODI century in a group stage WC game ?

[Sunil1z]

Pick the best group stage knock amongst these. All the players are from 4 semi-finalist.

 

[trundler]

Rohit's hundred against SA in 2019 was even better

 

[Gob]

Great to see someone recognising Fleming's knock. Watched the whole innings live and he barely put a foot wrong. Never though NZ had a puncher's chance after SA made 300 plus first dig with Gibbs making a ton from memory

I also watched entire NZ innings. It was unbelievable knock against a very good attack.

Boucher dropped a sitter from Fleming early in the innings.

That must have hit his FCA hard

 

[Silver Silva]

Steve Waugh was the most clutch player of the 90's.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Steve Waugh's hundred wasn't even in the group stage so it shouldn't get any votes.

It wasn't?

Pretty sure it was one of the last few group stage games and they had to win it to make the semis. Looking forward to see how the Mandela effect gets the better of me here

Unless we are talking about super six or some **** like that

It was a super six game, yes

 

[Sunil1z]

It was a super six game, yes

Super six was also a group stage game.

There are 2 types of games:
Group stage
Knockouts

 

[GIMH]

It was a super six game, yes

How can the man who hates 100s not being counted as 50s not consider a second group stage to be group stage?

 

[TheJediBrah]

Rohit's hundred against SA in 2019 was even better

There were many, many way better group stage WC hundreds than these 4 but if we had to choose from these it's definitely Fleming's for me. It was a big chase against a good attack playing at home, rain affected game and effectively was what kept SA from progressing.

edit: well tbf it would be Waugh's but as mentioned that wasn't a group stage

 

[Prince EWS]

The ***** voting for de Villiers here should probably be banned.

 

[Prince EWS]

Boucher dropped a sitter from Fleming early in the innings.

I believe Steve Waugh was also dropped in his innings. It's a shame noone remembers these things.

We could really do with a poster on CW who makes such mistakes from the fielders (or, you might say, a "first chance" for the batter) the primary focus of their posting on this esteemed forum.

Steve Waugh's 120* is GOATed I thought

 

[TheJediBrah]

Super six was also a group stage game.

Group stage
Knockouts

Is this the Sunilz Classification System, fair enough

 

[TheJediBrah]

Top 4 WC group stage (or first stage/qualifying/whatever you want to call it) centuries IMO:

Kapil 175
Symonds 143
O'Brien 113
Maxwell 201

Surely one of Nathan Astle's ducks has to come close.
