First Test centurions for every test team

Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe’s captain for their inaugural Test match against India at Harare in 1992, Dave Houghton made it to the record books for a very good reason. He happens to be the oldest player to become the first centurion for his team.

Also, after Charles Bannerman for Australia, 118 years later, Dave Houghton’s knock ensured that Zimbabwe didn’t lose their debut match, something which all other teams did. Some achievement that by Dave Houghton and Zimbabwe!

People reading my articles can expect them to be simply written, enjoyable and one which provides a personal touch to a particular topic/ article.
