Never Thought Would Get To Lord’s Honours Board For A Hundred, Says Gus Atkinson

By IANS News August 31, 2024 • 11:03 AM View: 824

England pacer Gus Atkinson said he never expected his name to be on the Lord’s honours board for making a century in Test cricket. On day two of the ongoing second Test at the Lord’s, Atkinson made 118 – his first Test century, to complete a rare double of making it to the honours board for both bowling and batting performances.

Atkinson previously made the honours board twice in his debut Test against the West Indies in July, where he bagged a five-wicket haul on debut and ended up with a match haul of 12 scalps in what was also James Anderson’s farewell international game.
