Originally posted on our Patreon channel two weeks ago, Yas, Phil and Jo discuss a particularly special feature in the latest issue of Wisden Cricket Monthly – 100 hundreds that changed the game (and some that changed the world).

In it, a selection of the game’s best writers tell the stories behind a century of centuries spanning more than 250 years which left an indelible mark on an ever-evolving sport and, in some instances, sparked social or political change.
