Removing the date qualifications, least efficient would be interesting- I bet there are a few pre-war players who scored 6 or 7 centuries over a couple of decades...

Completely forgot about Dernbach (there was a spell when I didn't pay much attention to cricket - my interest has been renewed since my son started playing a few years ago and via this thread).

My main problem with that side is Sylvester Clarke played for the Windies, otherwise he’d’ve been straight in my team

Told you I had gaps in my knowledge. In my youth I would read the paper every day including all the scorecards of all the matches. Since cricket went to Sky and I stopped reading a paper my exposure is generally limited to highlights on TV and checking BBC/CricInfo during tests.

Didn't expect Robin Smith to be close to Atherton on that list!

I'm sort of surprised that Robin Smith got 6 100's. I remember him as a half century merchant in a really poor team
