Dravid in elite club of centurions
RAWALPINDI: With his maiden century against
Pakistan here today, Indian vice-captain Rahul Dravid joined a
select group of batsmen to have scored a century against all but one
Test playing nation.
The only country against whom Dravid has not scored a century is
Bangladesh.
Dravid's 17th century, which came on on the second day of the
series-deciding Test, was his 11th hundred abroad, making the
stylish batsman one of the few batsmen in world cricket to have
better career average overseas than at home.
The 31-year-old, who began his career in England in 1996, has so far
played 78 Tests. He had 6585 runs at the start of this match at a
superb average of 56.28.
He began with a 95 against England at Lord's and scored his first
century in his ninth Test against South Africa at Johannesburg in
the 1996-97 season.
