18-year-old Teague Wyllie became the youngest centurion in Sheffield Shield cricket since legendary Australia captain Ricky Ponting when he scored 104 for Western Australia in their eight-wicket win over New South Wales.
It was just Wyllie's third senior appearance and he looks to be a precocious talent, having also been Australia's leading run scorer at the recent Under-19 World Cup with 278 runs at an average of 69.50 as they finished third.
Surprisingly for a teenager who had just scored his first professional hundred, Wyllie's celebrations were largely muted as he calmly raised his bat while being congratulated by batting partner Matthew Kelly.
