First Test - New Zealand v West Indies: Day 4 : News Photo
Jerome Taylor showed the world that he was no mug with the bat

A quick, incisive bowler with both Test and ODI hat-tricks to boot, Jerome Taylor made a successful come-back into the West Indies team in 2014, taking 48 wickets in 17 Tests from then to his retirement. Taylor, nonetheless, also has a Test century to his name. Coming in at 173-6, he added 153 in 33 overs for the 7th wicket with Shiv Chanderpaul helping West Indies post a total of 340 on the board, only 25 short of New Zealand’s first innings total of 365.

Rain reduced the Test to a draw, but it gave Taylor an accomplishment that not many are aware of. His century, scored at almost a run a ball, was a boundary-studded affair which places him 5th on this list.
