Well, two junior Bowral Cricket Club players have put up two centuries in one day for their side.
Opening batsmen for the Bowral Kookaburra's stage three juniors, Lachlan Cooper and Flynn Corby had the games of their lives and put on quite the show while doing it at Stephen's Park on Saturday, November 21.
With Cooper posting 102 runs and finding the boundary 12 times, as he approached the crease, he had a little feeling it might be a big day, but also knew it was business as usual.
"I was feeling a bit confident, but also knew the task at hand," Cooper said.
"You have to continually think about the game and what you're going to do throughout it.
"Every ball you have to be focused and remember your plan of attack."
As he made his way into the 90 run territory, the pressure began to build for Cooper.
"The pressure was definitely there," Cooper said.
"When you're in the 90 run area you've got to filter the pressure and keep focused.
"If the pressure gets to you that's when you commit silly mistakes and don't reach your goal."
Flynn Corby posted 104 runs and had every parent in fear for their car as he smashed eight sixes.
He then went on to make his debut in second grade later that day.
He did all this on his 16th birthday. What a memory he has created for himself.
"I went out feeling good and I had the mindset of getting runs," Corby said.
"I didn't know how many runs I was on, so I didn't really think about it when nearing 100.
"But, I was really happy that I got my first century on my birthday
"It felt really good and I won't forget it."
When Cooper made 100, the feeling of lifting his bat in triumph is a feeling he won't soon forget. And he wasn't done just yet.
"It felt amazing to lift the bat up when I hit the century," Cooper said.
"It was a great feeling. After the game all the boys got around me and it's great to know that you've contributed to your team.
"It was also great to go on and score another 46 in third grade.
"It felt great to have such a good day."
Bowral Cricket Club chairman, Pete de Hosson couldn't have been prouder.
"It was a mammoth effort from the boys," de Hosson said.
"They've both worked really hard on their games and should be super proud of themselves."
