The first person to score a 100 in an ODI was England's Mike Denness in the second ODI,not Roy Fredericks.

I think Roy Fredericks is the first to be dismissed " hit wicket " in an ODI - Lillee claiming him in the very first World Cup Final, thus .
Not what I was looking for but you could be right ... Archie mac was very close as I mentioned above

Edit- First opener and first centurion in ODIs is Dennis Amiss
(have edited previous post too - apologise for inadvertently stating that it was Mike Denness)

This is getting difficult to guess - ? 100 before the 40th over or fastest century (in 113 balls )
Not that complex ...

First person to score a century ( close !!! A little phrase needs to be added in ). Btw, he was the second to score a century ... you guys should get it now

Behind Bradman (77%), who has the highest percentage of runs scored after they have passed the 100 mark compared to their total aggregate?

ie.a player scores 100, 105, 5 so is 205/210 - sorry if the question is a little vague.

Lol, ok let me try to rephrase it.

Which player, behind Bradman, has the highest number of runs with their scores of 100 or more compared to their overall tally?

So a player with 100, 105, 5, 90, 0 = 205/300 (205 runs with their century scores and 300 in total).

I'm looking for the player with the best percentage in what looks to be at least 20/30 tests.
