4. Glenn Turner’s solo brilliance
We might have seen many knocks which single-handedly saved teams out of major predicaments, but this knock from Glenn Turner will raise a lot of eyebrows. One of New Zealand‘s greatest cricketers of all time, Turner was a part of Warwickshire in county cricket for a good 15 years.
During this incredible run, he played an unforgettable knock in a game against Glamorgan in 1977. He scored 83.43% of the runs scored by Warwickshire, remaining unbeaten on 141 whilst the team could only score 169 runs. None of the other 10 batters scored more than 7 runs individually.
Glamorgan couldn’t cash in on their amazing bowling performance as the match finished in a draw. Turner is also one of the four non-English cricketers to have registered the century of centuries in First-class cricket, an elite list which includes Zaheer Abbas, Sir Donald Bradman and Sir Vivian Richards.
