Former Indian Cricket Team skipper – Virat Kohli is always recognized as one of the best batter of modern era. Kohli is a batting colossus and is often compared with batting legends like Don Bradman & Sachin Tendulkar. In his cricket career of more than 14 years, Virat Kohli made the life of bowlers miserable.
At present, Virat Kohli has scored 71 centuries in his International cricket career with 43 centuries in ODI cricket while 27 centuries in Test cricket and one in T20I cricket. His last century came against Afghanistan in September 2022 during Asia Cup 2022.
Virat Kohli has scored 23474 runs in International Cricket so far. He is the third Indian batsman after Sachin Tendulkar & Current Head Coach – Rahul Dravid to score over 20000 runs in International cricket.
Kohli stands at third place in the list of batters with most centuries in International Cricket after Sachin Tendulkar & Ricky Ponting. Sachin Tendulkar is at the top of the list with 100 centuries in his career. If Virat Kohli scores 1 more centuries, he will go past second placed Ricky Ponting (71 centuries).
Virat Kohli’s ODI centuries:
He has played many memorable knocks in ODI cricket. Kohli’s blazing 133* off just 86 balls at Hobart against Sri Lanka in 2012 is still treated as one of his best innings. His 183 runs innings which he scored against arch-rivals Pakistan in Asia Cup 2012 is also another gem.

Virat Kohli’s Test centuries:
Kohli has showed outstanding patience and class in test cricket with many ravishing knocks. His twin centuries in Adelaide Test, 2014 against Australia are unmatchable. He scored 115 in first innings and 141 in second innings to take India close to the target but India lost the match by 48 runs.
His 254* runs innings against South Africa in 2019 is one that will rank as one of the most eye-catching knocks played by an Indian batsman in Test matches at home. Kohli’s innings helped India post a mammoth total of 601 runs on board and then beat South Africa by an innings and 36 runs.
Kohli scored his first double-century against West Indies on 21 July 2016. Now, he is having a total 7 double-centuries in his record with a highest score of 254* runs.
