The first verifiable century in a match was scored on August 31, 1769 by John Minshull (1741 - 1793). Coincidentally, Minshull is also the first batsman in cricketing history to have been given out hit-wicket.

The first century in a major match was scored in July 1775 by John Small (1737 - 1826), playing for Hampshire against Surrey.
