Marto scores another ton Western Australia Cricket Association - 13 November 2002
The Western Australian Cricket Association congratulates Damien Martyn on his 100th first-class game for Western Australia. Martyn will be the 10th player to make 100 first-class appearances for Western Australia, when he plays against Victoria at the WACA Ground this weekend. The recently turned 31-year-old made his first-class debut, ironically against Victoria, in the 1990-91 season as a 19-year-old. He made 24 and 27 in that match. As well as his 99 first-class outings for Western Australia, Damien has also made 29 Test appearances. His resurrection as an international player of outstanding quality in recent seasons has been well documented as one of world cricket's fairy tales. He is the incumbent Australian Test team number four batsman. For Western Australia he has scored 7062 runs at an average of 45.56, with 20 centuries and 35 scores of 50 or more. He has also claimed 32 wickets with his nagging right-arm seamers. Martyn joins a distinguished and decorated band of past West Australian greats in the elite `100 Club'.
