Who scored the slowest Test hundred of the 21st century?

The slowest Test century since the turn of the millennium was compiled by Jimmy Adams, for West Indies against Zimbabwe in Kingston in March 2000. It took him more than eight hours - 496 minutes in all. Next comes a more noted West Indian stonewaller, Shivnarine Chanderpaul, whose century against India in Antigua in 2001-02 took 457 minutes.
Adams lies sixth on the overall list, which is headed by Mudassar Nazar's marathon for Pakistan against England in Lahore in 1977-78, when it took him 557 minutes to reach three figures. That broke the old mark of 545 minutes, set by South Africa's Jackie McGlew against Australia in Durban in 1957-58.
