Gary Ballance second player after Kepler Wessels (Australia and South Africa) to score hundreds of years for two Test countries; Ballance scores unbeaten 137 on Zimbabwe Test debut in the wake of hitting four hundreds for Britain across 23 Tests somewhere in the range of 2013 and 2017

Previous Britain hitter Gary Ballance scored 100 years on his Zimbabwe Test debut as he turned into the subsequent player, after Kepler Wessels, to score Test tons for two distinct nations.

Ballance, 33, hit an unbeaten 137 on day four of the primary Test against West Indies in Bulawayo.

Wessels scored Test hundreds for Both Australia and South Africa.

Ballance played 23 Tests for Britain somewhere in the range of 2013 and 2017, scoring 1,498 runs with four hundreds and seven half-hundreds of years.

The left-hander marked a two-year arrangement to play for his local Zimbabwe before the end of last year in the wake of being let out of Yorkshire and highlighted in one T20 global and two one-day internationals against Ireland in January.

In November 2021, Ballance conceded utilizing bigoted language towards his previous Yorkshire partner Azeem Rafiq, whose claims of bigotry during his time at the Headingley club shook cricket.

Rafiq has acknowledged a statement of regret from Ballance, who was one of seven people charged by the Britain and Ridges Cricket Board in June last year.

The others charged were Matthew Hoggard, Tim Bresnan, Andrew Hurricane, John Blain, Richard Pyrah and Michael Vaughan.

Hoggard, Bresnan, Hurricane, Blain and Pyrah have removed their co-activity from the disciplinary cycle, with a meeting to be held openly in London between Walk 1-9.

That implies Vaughan is the main charged individual set to show up at the Cricket Discipline Commission hearing one month from now, with Ballance not taking an interest having conceded his charge.
