List of international cricket centuries at Bellerive Oval
The Bellerive Oval, also known by its sponsored name Blundstone Arena, is a cricket ground in Hobart, Australia.[2] It is the home of the Tasmania cricket team[3] and the Hobart Hurricanes (a Twenty20 team in the Big Bash League),[4] as well as being a Test, One Day International (ODI) and Twenty20 International (T20I) venue.[5] It has a capacity of 16,000 spectators.[2] As of December 2015, the ground has hosted 12 Test matches, the first in 1989 when Australia hosted Sri Lanka.[6] It has also staged 34 ODI matches, the first of which was in 1988 when New Zealand lost to Sri Lanka by four wickets.[7] As of October 2014, two T20Is have been played at the ground.[8] The first was in 2010 when Australia beat the West Indies by 38 runs;[8] the second was in 2014, when Australia defeated England by 13 runs.[8]
The first Test century (100 or more runs in a single innings) scored at the ground was by Australian Mark Taylor in the third innings of the first Test match against Sri Lanka in 1989.[9] In the same innings Dean Jones and Steve Waugh also scored centuries.[10] As of December 2015, 30 Test centuries have been scored at the ground in 12 Test matches.[1] As of December 2015, Adam Voges 269*, scored against West Indies in 2015, is the highest Test innings achieved at the ground and only the second double century (200 or more runs in a single innings) in this ground, after Ricky Ponting's 209, against Pakistan in 2010.[1] The highest Test score by an overseas player is 192 by the Sri Lankan Kumar Sangakkara in 2007.[1] Michael Hussey has scored three Test centuries at the ground, the most by any batsman.[11]
In the second ODI ever at the Bellerive Oval,[7] West Indian Desmond Haynes scored the first century at the venue with a score of 101 runs from 112 balls against Pakistan in 1988.[12] In 34 ODIs, a total of 22 centuries have been scored.[12] As of October 2014, the highest ODI score at the ground is 172, scored by Adam Gilchrist, an Australian wicket-keeper.[12] The top scoring non-Australian is Sri Lankan Tillakaratne Dilshan, who scored 160 runs.[12] Dilshan and fellow Sri Lankan Kumar Sangakkara are the only players to have scored two ODI centuries at the Bellerive Oval.[13] In the two T20I games at the Bellerive Oval, as of October 2014, no centuries have been scored.[14] The top T20I score at the ground is 75 by Australian Cameron White in 2014.[14]
