Gary Ballance etched his name in history books on Tuesday as he became only the 2nd cricketer on the planet to score a Test hundred for two different countries.

He achieved the feat after a match-saving 137 not out for Zimbabwe in the 1st Test vs the West Indies. 

Though it was Ballance's 5th Test ton but the first one for Zimbabwe. His other 4 hundreds in whites came for England before he moved to his native country Zimbabwe.

Kepler Wessels was the first player to do so as he scored a Test ton for Australia and South Africa.
