Resolution criteria

This market will resolve to "Yes" if Joe Root scores a Test century (100 runs or more in a single innings) in Australia during any official Test match. The primary source for verification will be the official England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) website: (skysports.com).

Background

As of July 2025, Joe Root has scored 37 Test centuries, surpassing Sir Alastair Cook's previous England record of 33. Despite his prolific run-scoring, Root has yet to achieve a Test century in Australia. In 14 Test matches played in Australia, he has accumulated 892 runs at an average of 35.68, with a highest score of 89. (cricindeed.com)

Considerations

Root's inability to score a century in Australia has been noted by cricket analysts. Former Australia coach Darren Lehmann remarked that to be considered an "all-time great," Root needs to achieve this milestone. (bbc.co.uk) The upcoming Ashes series in Australia during the 2025-2026 season presents an opportunity for Root to address this gap in his record.
