5. Damien Martyn – 116* vs New Zealand, 3 March 2000:

Steve Waugh’s men proved no match for New Zealand pacers on an Auckland pitch that had a lot of assistance for the bowlers. The Aussies were losing wickets at regular intervals but a brilliant century from Martyn helped them to post a respectable total of 191 runs. New Zealand comfortably chased down the total in the 41st over.
