which player scored a slowest tets hundred&odi hundred in cricket history?

Answer 1

I think you meant Test and ODI

Mudassar Nazar (557 minutes) holds the record for the slowest Test hundred, a marathon display that he achieved for Pakistan v England at Lahore in 1977-78.
Here's a detail summary of that match

Answer 2

Slowest century in test cricket was the century scored by Mudassar Nazar of Pakistan at Lahore against England i 1977/78,
He scored the century in 557 minutes.

As far as slowest century in ODI is oncerned, I am not quite sure which player holds that record.

Answer 3

Slowest Century In Test Cricket

Answer 4

The Teast record is 557 minutes by Mudassar Nazar (Pakistan v England at Lahore1977-78)

Australia's David Boon is believed to have scored the slowest century in ODIs. In a Benson & Hedges World Series Cup match against India, at Hobart in 1991-92, Boon reached the three-figure mark off 166 balls during his unbeaten innings of 102.

New Zealand's Glenn Turner (114* off 177 balls v India at Manchester in 1975) and West Indies Gordon Greenidge (106* off 173 balls v India at Birmingham in 1979) may have a strong case, but no authentic information is available about the exact number of balls taken by these two to complete their centuries.

Answer 5

The slowest Test hundred in terms of minutes was scored by Mudassar Nazar as mentioned above.

In terms of balls, Jackie McGlew took 480 balls to reach his 100 at Durban in 1957-58. He took 545 minutes, which also makes it the second slowest in minutes.

Colin Cowdrey has also played an innings of similar velocity but I can't remember at the moment which one it is. Mudassar took far fewer balls than these two for this 100.

The slowest ODI 100 was by David Boon against India at Hobart in 1991-92. He took 166 balls for it, and finished with 102* in 168.

Answer 7

in olden days when odi played for 60 overs batsmen usually scored century after 50 overs only.In 50 overs format also batsmen like RAMIZ RAJA,GEOFF MARSH,MOHINDER AMARNATH,DESMOND HAYNES all scored century in more than 150 balls only.still they get proud.I remember once MIANDAD scored a ton in 163 balls vs WI in 1989.And in 60 overs format I remember GORDON GREENIDGE scored a century in 174 balls.Remember once GAVASKAR scored 36 in exactly 174 balls
