Kane Williamson achieved a remarkable milestone during the third Test against England at Seddon Park in Hamilton, New Zealand, by scoring his seventh Test century at this venue — the most by any New Zealand batter. His unbeaten 123 on the third day of the match put New Zealand in a strong position.

This century marked Williamson’s 33rd in Test cricket and his seventh at Seddon Park, where he now shares the fifth spot on the list of batters with the most hundreds at a single venue.

Williamson has also set several other notable records at Seddon Park:

  1. He is the first batter to score centuries in five consecutive Tests at the venue.
  2. He has four scores of 150 or more at Seddon Park, placing him second behind Mahela Jayawardene and Kumar Sangakkara.

Additionally, Williamson boasts a remarkable batting average of 66.77 in New Zealand, the highest among any batter with 5000 or more Test runs in the country.

Here are a few examples of performances that have been described as “Bradmanesque”:

Kamindu Mendis
Mendis’s early career was hailed as Bradmanesque when he reached the 1,000-run mark in just 13 innings, matching Bradman’s pace. He also became the first batter to score 50 or more in each of his first eight Tests, an extraordinary feat that caught attention.

Michael Hussey
Hussey’s batting average of 84.80 after his first 33 innings was referred to as Bradmanesque, though some critics argued that the only thing truly “Bradmanesque” about it was his exceptionally high average.

Don Bradman
Bradman’s career Test batting average of 99.94 is widely regarded as the ultimate benchmark of cricketing excellence.
