sehwag made 105 :orderorder:

[yoda]

Has to be the one by Dhawan and it's not over yet.

Nah, on Indian flat pitch and weakened aussie attack? Nah. SDhawan century is very good, but won't be the "best" ever debut 100 by Indian. The ones made in SA and Eng were against better bowling attacks in tougher conditions.

[JaFanatic]

i've only seen dhawan and raina's ton between these 2 dhawan's is easily the better one

[vvvslaxman]

I have no idea about 100s before 1980. But Azhar's 100, Ganguly's 100 memorable and delightful. Amre faced a very good attack so was Sehwag. Infact India was in a corner when Viru joined Sachin.

[Dumbbells]

Sehwag. It was on a bouncy SA track and against some good fast bowlers.

[Ultimate_Game]

Sehwag, Ganguly & Amre are my top 3.

[Number]

Sehwag for me.

Just because they were in SA, Eng they have to be "tougher" conditions, right ? There's no way any track can be good for batting there. :facepalm:

[G_B_]

even though this is one a flattish pitch against a poor attack in the conditions i will go for Dhawan. Its the pace at which he scored the runs and hardly a slog in there.

[vvvslaxman]

Poor Dravid.. always bridesmaid. Got out on 95.

[Ultimate_Game]

Just because they were in SA' date=' Eng they have to be "tougher" conditions, right ? There's no way any track can be good for batting there. :facepalm:[/quote'] Sehwag came in when we were 50 odd for 4 and other than SRT & Sehwag nobody could do much, and we ended up losing the match. That was a tough pitch to bat on.

[cowboysfan]

viru's hundred.

[Sachin=GOD]

Among those I've watched: 1.Ganguly 2.Sehwag 3.Dhawan

[saneindian]

Sehwag's 105 will be most popular. Lala Amarnath's debut 100 , the 1st test 100 ever by an Indian will perhaps remain most important.

Lala's 118 will always have historical significance as it turned out to be first century for India as well.

[vvvslaxman]

"Awesome stuff Shikhi boy! :) Best debut ever!! So proud of you. Go for a huge one tomorrow!," [sic] Sehwag wrote on his twitter page. Good from Viru.

[carnish]

Best was Viru against Saffers... Just loved that. DADA's 100 @ Lords is not too far behind. Never seen Amre's innings .. Would love to though
