For some reason, my original answer didn't come in.

But I also had Hobbs, Hammond, along with Tendulkar, V. Richards and Lara

In one dayers, I reckon Gibbs from S.Africa would be one when they chased that huge score, think Tendulkar got a pretty big ton against us as well

Have to do some work. Will come back later and hopefully there are 1-2 left for me to name. I might throw in Cowdrey, but I thought Gower would be in there after my first couple got knocked back.

Jonty Rhodes is an amzing one IMO, Never scored a hundred against Australia IIRC yet has scored over 1500 runs. Did play for a long time though.
