13 Batsmen who have scored Test hundreds against all nine other Test nations; Kane Williamson became the latest to join the list. The others are Gary Kirsten, Steve Waugh, Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, Marvan Atapattu, Brian Lara, Adam Gilchrist, Ricky Ponting, Kumar Sangakkara, Mahela Jayawardene, Jacques Kallis and Younis Khan.
50 Tests in which Williamson achieved the complete set, the fastest in terms of matches played. The previous quickest was Sangakkara, who achieved it in his 69th Test. Williamson is also the quickest in terms of innings: he has achieved it in 91 innings, while the previous best was Sangakkara's 114. Williamson is also the quickest in terms of age - no other player has done it before 30, while Williamson is a day short of 26 - and in terms of least hundreds needed to complete the set.
