A video of Jacques Kallis, reaching his century at the Gabba, Brisbane on Sunday in the first Test between Australia and South Africa.
Resuming after lunch on 357 for 3, Kallis looked set for a huge score on an unbeaten 137.
The all-rounder’s 44th Test ton – the second highest tally behind only Sachin Tendulkar (51) – also marked the highest score by a South African at the Gabba, surpassing Eddie Barlow’s 114.
South Africa pushed their first innings total well beyond 400 but Australia slowed their charge with four wickets in the afternoon session of the third day at the Gabba.
The Proteas lost four for 52 during part of the middle session including Jacques Kallis for 147 but advanced their hefty first innings total to 434 for seven off 148 overs at tea.
