May not get another chance against either nation.

Gilchrist made 94 in the official Test against the World XI. If he made 100, he would have stood alone :)

Hayden made a century against the World XI - he has a chance to stand alone in the next Test.

Speller, you can add Stephen Fleming to your list.

9th Test century today (vs Sth Africa). 3rd double century!

He now has 1 century against 7 other Test nations and 2 against England. He is missing India (HS 92) and Zimbabwe (HS 84) from the "set".
