Warner reaches his 26th Test century. He is now 8th, behind just Ponting, SPD BradSmith, Steve Waugh, Matthew Hayden, DG SmithBradman, Michael Clarke and Allan Border, on the all-time list for Australia.

So, he's 72* at Lunch on Day 1 of the Perth Test.

He is presently 7th all-time for Test runs for Australia and, right now, needs 67 more runs to become Australia's highest-ever run-scoring Test opener. At that point, he would pass Matthew Hayden and with a further 18 runs after that would pass Michael Clarke and move into 5th all-time for Test runs for Australia. If he makes the 85 he needs, his run-scoring feats in Tests for Australia will be behind only Ponting, Border, Steve Waugh and SPD BradSmith.

And with his 139th run, he goes ahead of Matthew Hayden. On 141*, he has 8,629 Test runs, 6th all-time for Australia.

And now, on 157*, Michael Clarke is in the rear-view mirror. 5th all-time for Test runs for Australia.

And he also has the second-most centuries for Australia across all 3 formats, behind only Ricky Ponting.

Final overall Test record after the Sydney Test:

Test career:
2011-2024.

112 Tests, 205 innings, 8 not outs.

8,786 runs at 44.59, with 26 100s and 37 50s. He finished with the fabulous career strikerate of 70.19 runs per 100 balls.

At retirment, he had scored the 22nd-most runs in a Test career for any country and was 5th all-time for Australia, behind only Ponting, Border, Steve Waugh and SPD BradSmith.

In his final 12 months with the team, Australia, amongst other things, won the ICC World Test Championship and the ICC ODI World Cup.

A fine career and one of Australia's true cricketing greats.

Tonight, he became just the 3rd man in history to play 100 Tests, 100 ODIs and 100 T20s for his country.

And in his 100th T20 international, he was POTM (yet again) for his 70 from just 36 balls.

[Pies4shaw]

And today he became Australia's highest scorer of runs in T20 internationals. He now has 3,155 career runs. Only two other players have reached 2,000 runs for Australia in T20 internationals.

A breathtakingly fine career continues. He is, of course, already 5th all-time for Australian Test runs and 6th all-time for Australian ODI runs. His ODI average is higher than the average of every one of the players who made more career runs than him.
