The exclusive list of IPL batters who have scored 8 or more centuries in the tournament — currently only one player.

3 itemsUpdated Mar 23, 2026

As of 2025, only Virat Kohli has scored 8 or more centuries in IPL history. This extraordinary milestone — reached during the 2024 IPL season — reflects Kohli's unprecedented consistency as an IPL batter across 18 seasons. His 8 centuries are spread across different seasons, with 4 coming in the record-breaking 2016 campaign alone. While Jos Buttler (5 centuries) and KL Rahul (6 centuries) are approaching this club, Kohli's record of 8 seems unlikely to be challenged for many years.
