When Australian Steve Smith was hit in the head in the 2018 Ashes series, his replacement was Marnus Lapushen. Lapushene took advantage of the opportunity, and even after Smith joined the team, he continues to make his mark in the Australian team.
In the 2nd Test of the day-night Test against England in Adelaide, both David Warner (95) and Steve Smith (93) missed centuries, and Marnus Lapushen was the only player to score a century. Lapushen, who scored a huge century, was dismissed for 103.
This is Labushen’s 6th Test century. Since all Test matches played by Labushen are for the ICC Test Championship, Labushen shares the top spot with Joe Root in the list of highest-scoring players in the Test Championship.
Joe Root has scored 6 centuries in the ICC World Test Championship. Lapushen, who has the same 6 percent in the Test championship, shares the top spot with Joe Root.
Lapushen scored 4 centuries in the day-night Test match. Labushen holds the record for most centuries in a day-night Test.
