Tugga Waugh did it back in 2003, didn't he?
Martin Love's final match...
Is this meant to be IN every test playing nation because if it is their scores against every nation they are a fair bit off.

No it is just a century against each nation. Doesn't matter where, just that they get one.
If they do do that, they will join Waugh, Tendulkar, Atapattu, Lara, Dravid and Kirsten in the "exclusive" list of players that have scored centuries against all current teams (exept their own of course).

******** looking at it now makes sense for some reason I thought the Second list was Gilly and the later Hayden now it all makes sense.
I would put money on at least two of them getting there. Not sure if Gilly will be given enough time to bat.

My mistake, I didn't specify that the top one was Ponting.
It was going to be just Ponting, but then I found out that Hayden and Gilchrist are in the same scenario, and forgot to change the threads' opening sentence.

Well, I didn't think Gilly would be the one to do it out of the three.
But well done. :thumbsu:

Did he get 150 against the Bangers?
Gilchrist
Becomes the 7th player to have achieved this feat.
And the first wicketkeeper.

And the first wicketkeeper.
Its hard to see another wicket keeper ever doing it again. Its hard for keepers to score centuries because they come in down the order. Its only because he scores so quickly.
Although Andy Flower would have gone close. He batted up the order.
