JamMack 2016-12-20 16:30:16

Yagga scored over 300 over 2 innings.

scoring a triple on debut in a single innings is amazing.

He did not score no triple century on debut........in his first test match he made four or sain so before getting run out, his second test match was not much better.........this triple century is his maiden test century ( his first) and he joins Sir Garry and another player in doing so.........

Wunna does keep bare noise bout cricket and ent know fuck all bout the same cricket........and by the way a maiden test century is not a debut century...........please

Karun didn't score a triple on debut, however his triple is his debut century, made in his 3rd match.

In his debut match he made 4 in the first innings and did not bat in the 2nd innings.

Edited:
Sorry cherri, I didn't see your post. Was busy verifying things on CricInfo.

If he meant first test 100 being a triple hundred, then the answer is Sobers..

Bobby ' triple was on his debut when they had that Packer rebellion .

In reply to Drapsey

Makes sense..the only triple hundreds you would have been familiar with are,Gayle's and Lawrence Rowe's big grin

In reply to WestDem

Debut? Bobby was a ole fart by then and he had to be recalled..does debut mean something else in Guyana? lol

 
WestDem 2016-12-20 17:47:06 

In reply to Khaga

Shut you skunt! Since he is an Australian, he was credited with having two debut... lol razz lol

Rowe became the first batsman to score a double and a century in his first test against New Zealand. His triple was against England

Doh let Chrissy hear you leave out Lara

 
Khaga 2016-12-20 18:04:06 

In reply to Maispwi

Why? He also scored a 300 on debut?

 
Maispwi 2016-12-20 18:17:58 

In reply to Khaga

Neither did Gayle or Rowe

 
cherri 2016-12-20 18:52:00 

People bout hey mixing up maiden test century with debut...........

when you play your first game in any sport it is your debut.........
whey you score your first century, goal or anything even if it come after you play a cazillion games it is your maiden, it cannot be a debut anything because you would have made your debut already......but then again interpretation does lik nuff people.........just sain.

Some English guy named RE Foster scored 287 + 15 or something like that (but more than 300 total, and less than Yagga's 214 + 100*) on his Test debut, way back in time. That was Foster's only Test century, and he didn't play much Test cricket after. Here is a Wikipedia article about him.

Sobers' first Test century was 365*, and Bobby Simpson's first was 302*, I believe (about the latter).

I know that Rass about Rowe! I was there. Rowe scored more than 300 runs on debut. Double and single makes a triple last time I did the calculation. I just didn't realize Karun had already played a couple matches.

how the hell what Rowe scored is a triple as the first century, no batsman never scored a triple century on debut.

Some people who were there claimed that Rowe made only 67 in the 2nd innings. He was run out by at least a yard, but Umpire Douglas Sang Hue was gazing somewhere and royally missed the call.

Any truth to that?

Ask those dotish again how they would characterize Sars century after 19 tests against bangladesh?

Was it a century on debut or a a maiden test century?

Some of these folks here are just plain dumb.

Agreed that no one has scored a triple on debut, but Rowe scored > 300 runs on debut. I wanted to know who else. Just learned about R. E. Foster.
