Top 3 Centuries By Virat Kohli In The IPL ​

Virat Kohli has a legitimate claim to be the best batsman in contemporary cricket. Around the course of his more than ten-year international career, former India captain Virat Kohli has made bowlers' lives miserable all around the world. The batting icon is just the second Indian batsman after Sachin Tendulkar to reach the 25,000-run mark in international cricket, having already amassed over 27,000 runs. With 81 tons under his belt, Kohli is also ranked second among batsmen with the most hundreds in international cricket. He moved up to second position after surpassing Ricky Ponting's record of 71 centuries with a century against Bangladesh in the third ODI in 2022. Out of all the players that are currently playing, Kohli has the most international hundreds. The top slot is occupied by the ‘God of Cricket’ Sachin Tendulkar, who has amassed an incredible 100 international hundreds. Although he has amassed 50 hundreds in the One-Day International format, Virat Kohli has amassed 30 centuries in Test cricket and one hundred in the shortest version of the game.

But the single ton in the T20Is among Virat Kohli total centuries led many people to believe that the stalwart isn’t as good in the shortest format as the other ones. However, when you look at his Indian Premier League (IPL) stats, you’ll find eight centuries just lying around. These centuries go on to show how potent he is in the T20s as well. By the way, he has the most number of centuries in the IPL, just above Jos Buttler who has seven centuries. The 35-year-old has only ever played for RCB, having been a member since the 2008 IPL season. He has amassed a record 8004 runs from 244 innings in the IPL, including 55 half-centuries in addition to the eight tons. He is the IPL's top run scorer with these figures. Despite not being able to guide RCB to an IPL championship in 13 years, Kohli has been one of the most successful hitters in the lucrative competition.

Top IPL Centuries By Virat Kohli

113* vs Rajasthan Royals, IPL 2024

In the IPL 2024 edition, Kohli scored his eighth and most recent century against the Rajasthan Royals. Once more, when he batted first, Kohli was the only one who anchored the innings. Together with Faf du Plessis, he forged a 125-run stand, hitting 113* off 72 balls. During his innings, Kohli smashed 12 fours and four sixes to stay undefeated. Jos Buttler reached 100* off just 58 balls to put the Royals over the finish line in 19.1 overs, but once more, the century did not come in a winning cause.

113 vs Kings XI Punjab, IPL 2016

This is his greatest IPL score to date and the fourth of four hundreds that Kohli recorded in the 2016 season. By virtue of the Duckworth Lewis technique, RCB defeated KXIP by 82 runs thanks to the knock of 50-ball 113, which also kept them in the running for the playoffs. At a strike rate of 226.00, Kohli hit 12 fours and 8 sixes throughout the 113-run innings. 

109 vs Gujarat Lions, IPL 2016

One of the most notable partnerships that AB de Villiers and Kohli have forged since joining RCB in 2011 occurred in 2016. In the season's 44th encounter, RCB hosted the now-defunct Gujarat Lions. With five fours and eight sixes, Kohli scored 109 from 55 balls. Up to 112 of the 229 runs in the pair's partnership came in the final five overs. RCB scored 248 runs in all, and the Gujarat squad was dismissed for 104 runs in response.

[ad_1] LSG stole the show with Pant’s addition to their roster. (PC: X.com) Heading into the auction with just Rs 51 crore to spend and tasked with building a squad around the core group of five retained players, the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) had plenty of bases to cover with a limited purse. Despite having a smaller budget compared to other franchises like Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), LSG secured the services of Rishabh Pant for a record sum of Rs 27 crore. LSG owner Sanjeev Goenka told RevSportz that the franchise was keen to acquire Pant. With more than half of their purse spent on a single player, LSG had to adopt a strategic approach to their remaining purchases, ensuring they stayed within budget. They executed this plan effectively over the two-day auction. After securing Pant, it seemed that LSG was focused on forming their first XI around versatile all-rounders. David Miller, Mitchell Marsh, and Aiden Markram were brought in to bolster the top and middle order, complementing the presence of Pant, Nicholas Pooran, and Ayush Badoni. The lower order was further reinforced with the additions of Abdul Samad and Shahbaz Ahmed. They aggressively targeted Indian seam-bowling talent, spending big to secure Avesh Khan and Akash Deep, while also adding Akash Singh and Rajvardhan Hangargekar to their squad. M Siddharth, who impressed in the previous season, also makes a return to the squad. Notably, Shamar Joseph, retained through the RTM card, is the sole overseas bowling addition for LSG this season. Hits Rishabh Pant   Pant was a highly sought-after player, with many expecting him to be picked up by PBKS or RCB. However, LSG made a surprise move, securing the dynamic batter. With Pant in their squad, LSG have secured their captain, wicketkeeper, and a key batter in the lineup. He became the biggest buy of the auction, and undoubtedly, a major acquisition for LSG. Shahbaz Ahmed The conditions at Ekana will suit Shahbaz Ahmed and his style of play. The Bengal all-rounder, who recently struck a century in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy against defending champions Punjab, is in excellent form with the bat. The slow pitch and large boundaries in Lucknow will complement his bowling style. A versatile player, Shahbaz can serve as a like-for-like replacement for Krunal Pandya. Akash Deep Capped Indian bowlers were in high demand throughout the auction, and LSG did well to secure Akash Deep. The right-arm seamer has been impressive in T20s and has shown remarkable growth in international cricket. He is capable of taking wickets with the new ball and can deliver deadly yorkers in the latter stages of the game. Misses LSG may have missed an opportunity by not pursuing more overseas pace bowling options. While they targeted two, Shamar Joseph and Anrich Nortje, the former was brought back using an RTM card. Although LSG has a strong Indian core of fast bowlers, many of them, including Akash Deep and Avesh Khan, are relatively raw when it comes to the IPL. Joseph, though possessing pace, also lacks experience in the T20 format. Additionally, while LSG has one of the most destructive and settled middle orders, their top-order options seem less reliable. Mitchell Marsh is there, but Aiden Markram and Matthew Breetzke have not inspired much confidence as key top-order players. Overall rating – 7.5/10 LSG IPL 2025 Squad: Nicholas Pooran, Ravi Bishnoi, Mayank Yadav, Mohsin Khan, Ayush Badoni, Rishabh Pant (Rs. 27 crore), David Miller (Rs. 7.5 crore), Aiden Markram (Rs. 2 crore), Mitchell Marsh (Rs. 3.40 crore), Avesh Khan (Rs. 9.75 crore), Abdul Samad (Rs. 4.20 crore), Aryan Juyal (Rs. 30 lakh), Akash Deep (Rs. 8 crore), Himmat Singh (Rs. 30 lakh), M. Siddharth (Rs. 75 lakh), Digvesh Singh (Rs. 30 lakh), Shahbaz Ahmed (Rs. 2.40 crore), Akash Singh (Rs. 30 lakh), Shamar Joseph (Rs. 75 lakh), Prince Yadav (Rs. 30 lakh), Yuvraj Chaudhary (Rs. 30 lakh), Rajvardhan Hangargekar (Rs. 30 lakh), Arshin Kulkarni (Rs. 30 lakh), Matthew Breetzke (Rs. 75 lakh).

If we are talking about IPL ships. I remember back in the 2014-2015 while playing for KingsXI Punjab, Maxi/David Miller were a ship. There used to be like edits and shit of them. Plus they were also linked to Preity Zinta, Kings XI owner.

Virat/ABD is also a fairly popular ship.

I personally prefer sticking to my team, which is CSK. I don't ship them because there is a big age gap (10+ years). But I love our openers together. Ruturaj Gaikwad/ Faf Du Plessis/ Devon Conway.

Rutu/Faf were our openers till from 2021. Then we had Rutu/Conway (RutuWay if you will) for the 2022 & 2023 season.

I think it was during the opening matches of 2022 season when Rutu said something like "I think Faf will be jealous a little bit" seeing Rutu & Conway's opening partnership.

Our openers in TSK (Franchise in MLC) are Faf & Conway, so Devon Conway was like "I know Rutu is going to be a little bit jealous"

There was a picture of three of them during this IPL season and I kid you not I got a bit emotional.

They also have a special handshake between them🥺

I don't ship them but yeah!! the bromace is 🤌

oh i didn't know any of that about csk! i'll have to look a little more into it!!

Dinesh Karthik Sets Retirement Date, Rumored to Bid Farewell to IPL After 2024 Season

Renowned Indian wicketkeeper-batsman Dinesh Karthik is reportedly gearing up for his final appearance in the IPL, with the 2024 edition set to commence on March 22. The 38-year-old, currently affiliated with the Royal Challengers Bangalore, has been a consistent presence in all 16 editions of the IPL since its inception in 2008, only missing two matches across 16 seasons. A source within the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) revealed, on the condition of anonymity, that Karthik plans to make the 2024 IPL his last and will make decisions regarding his international retirement following the tournament.

Having played for six different teams in the IPL, Karthik’s journey began with the Delhi Daredevils (now Capitals) in 2008, followed by stints with Kings XI Punjab, Mumbai Indians, a lucrative return to Delhi in 2014, and subsequent spells with Gujarat Lions and the Kolkata Knight Riders.

Before the IPL 2022 season, Karthik was released by the Kolkata Knight Riders and acquired by the Royal Challengers Bangalore for the second time at a cost of Rs 5.5 crore. His impactful performance in 2022, particularly as a finisher, saw him score 330 runs in 16 matches at an impressive average of 55 and an explosive strike rate of 183.33, contributing significantly to RCB’s journey to the playoffs.

Karthik’s prolific form earned him a spot in the India squad for the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia. However, the team fell short in the semifinals against eventual champions England.

Apart from his on-field contributions, Karthik has also made a name for himself as a commentator, showcasing a lively and technically sound approach.

In his international career, which ran parallel to that of MS Dhoni as a wicketkeeper-batsman, Karthik played 26 Tests, scoring 1025 runs, and participated in 94 ODIs, accumulating 1752 runs. His last appearance for India was in a T20I against Bangladesh in 2022. Across 60 T20Is, he scored 686 runs and showcased his skills with 30 catches and 8 stumpings.

Karthik boasts an impressive IPL record, featuring in 242 matches since the inaugural edition, amassing 4516 runs at an average of 25.81 and a strike rate of 132.71, with 20 half-centuries. Additionally, he has contributed with 141 catches and 36 stumpings.

While speculation surrounds Karthik’s IPL retirement after the upcoming season, fans eagerly await his final stint in the tournament, marking the end of an illustrious and impactful career in the world of cricket.
