Extraordinary batsmen without a solitary Test century at Lord's

He has scored hundreds of years in Old Trafford, and Kensington Oval against England, but has neglected to score one in Lords. Kallis has an aggregate of 54 runs with an ugly normal of 10.8. He, in any case, had taken 4 wickets in an innings at Lord's against England in 1998.

Brian Lara

Brian Charles Lara, without a doubt, will be recognized as one of the best batsmen of the advanced time. With his extraordinary position, lightning footwork, and high backlift he was continually needing additional limits and runs. He has gathered 11953 runs at a normal of 52.89 from the 131 Test matches he had played. It included 34 centuries, 7 twofold hundreds, 1 triple century, and the main 1 fourfold century in Test cricket.

Ricky Ponting

Ricky Thomas Ponting, also known as "Punter", ruled batting in all organizations around the globe.

Sunil Gavaskar

The best opening batsmen ever! His perfect skill, focus, and the mental fortitude to confront the fearsome West Indian movement assault without a head protector make him the Little ace of cricket.

Although Sachin Tendulkar outperformed his record of 34 Test hundreds of years, his commitment to Indian cricket is a long way past these numbers. In 4 Test matches, he scored 774 runs.

Probably the greatest void in his profession can be the nonappearance of a Test century in Lords out of his 34 centuries. He played 5 Test matches and neglected to score a hundred in the 10 innings he played. He scored a sum of 376 runs from his 10 innings at a normal of 37.6. It included 2 half-hundreds of years.

Sachin has scored hundreds of years on different grounds in England; for example, Old Trafford, Edgbaston, Trent Bridge, and Leeds with scores of 119*, 122, 177, and 193 separately. He has scored 7 Test hundreds of years against England.

In the 9 innings, he has ventured out to bat in Lord's his scores read an aggregate of 195 runs at a normal of 21.67. It is route underneath his norm. Like his venerated image, Sunil Gavaskar, Sachin has figured out how to score a century in Lord's playing for MCC.
