	rediff.com: cricket channel - Atherton applauds Ambrose, Walsh (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Michael Atherton's 108, his 15th Test century, held England's second innings together and allowed them to set a target of 374, although this was still short of the 400-plus captain Nasser Hussain would have wanted for comfort.
		Atherton, 32, one of the few current players capable of batting endurance, was at the crease for five minutes short of seven hours before a cut single to third man off Curtly Ambrose took him to a hundred off 315 balls including 13 fours.
		Atherton was on the verge of becoming the first England batsman to carry his bat since he himself achieved the feat against New Zealand at Christchurch in 1996/97 when he was last man out.

	CNNSI.com - Cricket - Atherton's century gives England big cushion - Sunday September 03, 2000 02:01 PM
		Atherton's 108 runs in 7 1/2 hours provided the backbone of England's second innings 217 all out and left the West Indies a mighty task of scoring 374 runs in a minimum of 104 overs to square the test series.
		Atherton, a veteran of 102 tests and been through thick and thin of English cricket during his 11-year career, appropriately played the innings that would wrest the Wisden Trophy from the West Indies after 31 years.
		Atherton, who finished the summer with 556 test runs, went head-to-head with Walsh and came away unscathed as he relived the famous battle he had with South African fast bowler Allan Donald at Leeds in England's 2-1 series success two years ago.

	The last of the Mohicans
		Atherton invariably opened in conditions where the ball swung and seamed, especially early on during the innings, and seen in that context he performed his role with distinction.
		Atherton's argument that he was only trying to make it easier for the pacemen to grip the ball on a sultry day did not find too many takers either.
		Atherton's judgment on or outside the off-stump was impeccable on most occasions, yet McGrath nailed him in that area, with the movement enhanced by bounce.

		Atherton took it one step further, pursuing a long-term research project of which this entrancing CD is the result.

	Ananova - Atherton inches to painstaking ton
		Atherton was 89 not out at tea as England led by 325, with Walsh poised on 33 wickets in the five matches and needing three more to overtake the best mark set by the late Malcolm Marshall who took 35 in 1988.
		Atherton and Alec Stewart (25) added 65 either side of lunch before the latter was undone by the bounce of debutant leg-spinner Mahendra Nagamootoo and fell to a catch at slip.
		Atherton did not have his fair share of the strike and made only nine in the last 55 minutes before the interval - but importantly from England's point of view he was conducting matters from the front.

		Atherton has written one of the best autobiographies, possibly by any cricketer.

		He acknowledges the weakness of the genre by leaving out most of his non-cricket related personal stuff and concentrating in the game and its personalities, but written from a highly thoughtful perspective.
