All test centuries are not the same - Kwami - 10-12-2013
I believe that it is time now for cricket to modernise the way centuries are recorded. A double triple or quadruple century should be given as 2 , 3 and 4 . centuries in one inning
Lara 's triple and quadruple century should count as 7 centuries.
How can a batsman with lets say 2 centuries in 2 games that totals 200 runs be given the same weight as A Lara whose total is 700 runs in 2 games?

I agree . It really is silly when 3 or 4 = 1 ! :-\

His 501 in county FC cricket tis also recorded as 1
5 = 1 :-[
