In cricket, a player is said to have scored a century when he scores 100 or more runs in a single innings. Test cricket, the longest version of the game, involves two innings per side in a match.

The result of a match is a "win" when one side scores more runs than the opposing side and all the innings of the team that has fewer runs have been completed.
