Green's landmark inning also carried wight of significance as it marked his maiden Test century on Australian soil since making his red-ball debut against India in December 2020.
Earlier, Darren Lehmann and Steve Waugh were the only Aussie batters to scored a century in a Test at Dawrin. The duo achieved the feat against Bangladesh in June 2003, with Lehmann scoring 110 and Waugh remaining unbeaten on 100.
