"I've never seen that in all my cricketing career."
Travis Head chopped on for a second time in this match, but his considerate move even caught Adam Gilchrist off guard.

County-by-county list of players in the Men's Hundred
I've included players with T20-only county contracts on the basis that if the Hundred didn't exist, most would probably play 50 over cricket too
England players also included for completion's sake

Orville Wright died on January 30, 1948.
Kenny Loggins was born on January 7, 1948.
That means the guy who invented flight and the guy who sang “Danger Zone” from “Top Gun” were alive at the same time.
What. The fuck. Has just happened.
Warwickshire go from 151/2 off 26.1 overs...
...to 160 all out off 33.3 overs
8 wickets for 9 runs in 7.2 overs
A sensational comeback from Somerset and one of the worst collapses, literally, of all time from Warwickshire
🏏 County Championship lone-warrior hundreds (2000-2026)
Centuries where nobody else in the entire match passed 50:
1️⃣ Joe Root: 222*
Yorkshire v Hampshire, 2012
Next highest: 37 by Steve Patterson
2️⃣ Darren Stevens: 190
Kent v Glamorgan, 2021
Next highest: 43 by Ollie Robinson
3️⃣ Aftab Habib: 164
Leicestershire v Derbyshire, 2000
Next highest: 43 by Iain Sutcliffe
This is one of the purest batting lists in cricket.
Not hundreds in flat draws.
Not hundreds where someone else quietly made 70.
These are matches where one batter reached three figures and nobody else in the entire game even made 50.
Root’s 222* is the most ridiculous one. A double hundred in a match where the next best score was 37. That is not carrying the innings. That is carrying the sport.
Darren Stevens’ 190 is vintage Stevens. Kent’s next best was 43, and Glamorgan had no answer either. One man turning a match into his own personal highlights reel.
Ian Ward’s 158* is maybe the strangest scorecard of the lot. The next highest score in the whole match was just 33. That is a massive gap between one batter and everyone else.
The 2018 entries are fascinating too. Cameron Steel made 160 for Durham with Collingwood next on 47, then Adam Lyth made 134* for Yorkshire with Tattersall next on 43.
And the smaller hundreds still hit hard.
Rob Key’s 110* when Denly’s 49 was next best.
Mark Chilton’s 113* when Hegg’s 48 was next.
Peter Bowler’s 117* when Graham Rose’s 37 was next.
These are not just centuries.
They are lonely centuries.
The kind where the scoreboard basically says: one batter understood the pitch, everyone else was guessing.
