2. 113 vs Kings XI Punjab, Bengaluru, 2016

Rain reduced the contest against Kings XI Punjab (now Punjab Kings) on May 18, 2016, at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru, to a 15-over-per-side affair, yet Kohli produced arguably the most explosive innings of his IPL career. Despite carrying stitches in his hand, he blazed 113 off 50 balls, lacing 12 fours and 8 sixes. His century arrived in just 47 balls, the fastest IPL hundred of his career.

The shortened format demanded immediate aggression, and Kohli delivered precisely that, powering RCB to a formidable total in the truncated match. The knock is widely regarded as one of the most destructive displays of batting the IPL has witnessed.
