Most Centuries in T20 World Cup

Scoring a century in any format of the game is considered one of the greatest achievements by a batter. It takes skills, strong character and composure throughout the innings to reach this milestone. Such long innings with big scores show the complete dominance of the batter against the opponent. 

Meanwhile, in T20 cricket, unlike the other two formats, a batter also has to keep an eye on his strike rate while piling up runs. Notching-up a century at a slower pace in the 20-over format will help the batter raise his average but will not benefit the team in any way.

With the abundance of T20 franchise leagues around the world, the batters have fully adapted to the aggressive style of cricket, ensuring that the bowlers have a hell of a time on the field. That being said, expect the batters to set the stage ablaze with big runs and attacking mindset in the 2024 T20 World Cup.  

To date, several batters have managed to score centuries in the T20 World Cup. West Indies legend Chris Gayle and Pakistan’s Sahibzada Farhan are the only players to have crossed the 100-run mark twice in the tournament.

England lead the list for the most centuries by a team, with four players achieving the feat, Jos Buttler, Jacob Bethell, Harry Brook, and Alex Hales. Notably, Suresh Raina remains the only Indian cricketer to have scored a century in the T20 World Cup, achieving the milestone during the 2010 edition.
