List of Indian Premier League centuries

Virat Kohli is the leading century maker, with eight centuries to his name. [1]

In cricket, a batter reaches a century when he scores 100 runs or more in a single innings. A century is regarded as a landmark score for a batter, and his number of centuries is generally recorded in his career statistics.[2] The Indian Premier League (IPL) is a professional league for Twenty20 cricket in India,[3] which has been held annually since its first edition in 2008.[4] Till date, 101 centuries have been scored by 53 different batsmen, out of which 27 are Indian players and 26 are overseas players. Players from 12 of the 15 franchises have scored centuries, with the three franchises that have not had a player score a century for them being Pune Warriors India, Kochi Tuskers Kerala and Gujarat Lions.[5]

The first century in the league's history was scored in the inaugural match itself on 18 April 2008 at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bangalore by Brendon McCullum for Kolkata Knight Riders against Royal Challengers Bangalore, scoring 158*, which is also one of the only two 150+ scores by individual batsmen in the league's history till date.[6] The highest score in the competition was made by Chris Gayle, who scored 175* for Royal Challengers Bangalore against Pune Warriors India.[7] In the same game, he scored the fastest century in terms of number of balls faced, scoring 100 runs in 30 deliveries.[7] The slowest century was jointly scored by Manish Pandey and Virat Kohli, both for Royal Challengers Bengaluru, reaching the milestone in 67 deliveries.

The highest number of centuries have been scored by Virat Kohli (8 centuries) followed by Jos Buttler with 7 centuries and Chris Gayle with 6 centuries.[8] David Warner, Shane Watson, KL Rahul, and Shubman Gill have four centuries each. AB de Villiers and Sanju Samson have scored three centuries each,[5] while Brendon McCullum, Adam Gilchrist, Virender Sehwag, Murali Vijay, Hashim Amla, Ajinkya Rahane, Shikhar Dhawan, Ben Stokes, Rohit Sharma, Jonny Bairstow, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ruturaj Gaikwad and Suryakumar Yadav have scored two centuries each.[7] Shikhar Dhawan, Jos Buttler, Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill are the only four players till date to have scored centuries in consecutive matches.[5][9] 19 centuries have been made by the players of Royal Challengers Bangalore, which is more than any other team.[7] The most centuries scored by an individual in a single season is 4, which was achieved by Virat Kohli in 2016 and Jos Buttler in 2022.
