The consensus about such lists is that they should not exist unless there is coverage in reliable sources where they are discussed as a group. As no coverage was found, so this list fails
WP:NLIST.

Merge No need for separate article,
WP:NOTSTATS does not count as centuries are a small and rather exclusive part of a cricketers career. If it was his whole international career details I would have said delete, but it's not so its def a merge.

Keep or Merge. Potential issues with inclusion in the main subject article, per
WP:NOTSTATS and
WP:SPLIT – his season-by-season batting averages are more of a problem and could be removed to accomodate this. wjematherplease leave a message... 13:09, 22 January 2021 (UTC)reply
Comment - note to closing admin - there was a
RfC on this and the consensus on
WP:CRIC was to remove these statistics from bios per WP:NOTSTATS.

Not true: "There's no consensus here that they should universally be included. Nor is there a clear consensus that such sections should be removed from all cricketer articles."wjematherplease leave a message... 10:21, 24 January 2021 (UTC)reply
Delete with the possibility of some prose being added to the player's article. These sorts of tables need to be supported by prose and considered on an individual basis if they're going to be included on the individual's article. I would rather see a summary added than a table such as this - if this were added it needs to be massively cut down to ensure that it doesn't take over the page. In Cowdrey's case there is already a super-long table on the page with little context and the article is really quite long as well. Adding this table, as it is, would actually create more stats and less understanding.
