List of international cricket centuries by Graeme Smith
South African cricketer who played international cricket between 2002 and 2014.[1] In a career spanning 12 years, he made centuries (100 or more runs in a single innings) on 27 and 10 occasions in Test and One Day International (ODI) matches respectively. His tally of 37 international centuries places him only behind Jacques Kallis (62), Hashim Amla (53) and AB de Villiers (45) among his countrymen, as of October 2016.[2]
Smith made his Test and ODI debuts against
Younus Khan, who has scored five centuries in the fourth innings of a Test.[8] Of his 27 Test centuries, 25 came while captaining the side, and South Africa lost none of its matches on any such instance.[9]
Smith's first ODI century came in 2005, three years after his international debut. He went on to score four more centuries the same year, the second-most in a calendar year by a South African.not out was made against Australia in February 2006.[12]
