David Warner became the 10th man in Test history to score a century in his 100th Test, and the second to score a double, breaking a near three-year Test century drought with a rollicking innings against South Africa at the MCG.
In making his 25th Test century, and his third Test double century, he joined an illustrious group of names to achieve the milestone and became just the second Australian to do it behind  Rickey Ponting, who is the only player to score twin hundreds in his 100th Test. Joe Root was the only other player to score a double hundred in his 100th Test.

Warner also became only the second player to score a century in both his 100th ODI as well as 100th Test, after Gordon Greenidge, and became the eigth Australian to pass 8000 Test runs during the course of his innings. (Cricinfo)
