Rohit Sharma, fondly nicknamed the “Hitman,” has mastered the art of turning starts into monumental innings. As of February 2025, he boasts 49 centuries in international cricket—32 in ODIs, 12 in Tests, and 5 in T20Is. His remarkable balance between elegance and aggression has made him one of the most feared batters in the modern era. Whether it’s a grueling Test match or a high-paced T20, Rohit’s hundreds stand out for their style and substance.
Dominance in Test Cricket
In the longest format, Rohit has struck 12 centuries in 67 matches, scoring 4,301 runs at an average of 40.57. He made an instant impact with a debut hundred—177 runs—and remarkably followed it with another century in the very next match. His career took a significant leap in 2019 when he was promoted to open in Tests, producing a memorable series against South Africa that included multiple tons and a career-high 212 in Ranchi. These innings displayed his ability to mix patience with controlled aggression, adjusting seamlessly to match situations.

ODI Excellence
Rohit’s record in One-Day Internationals is extraordinary. With 32 centuries, he ranks among the format’s most prolific run-scorers. He remains the only player to have scored three double-centuries in ODIs, a feat unmatched in the game’s history. His 264 against Sri Lanka in 2014 is still the highest individual score in men’s ODI cricket. The 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup saw him rewrite history once again, scoring five centuries in a single edition—a record that underlines his dominance on the world stage and his knack for performing in pressure tournaments.

Power in T20Is
Rohit is just as impactful in the shortest format. With five centuries, he holds the joint record for the most T20I hundreds alongside Glenn Maxwell. His ability to adapt to different situations—whether consolidating after early wickets or attacking from the outset—makes him a dangerous opponent. His blazing 118 in December 2017 was among the fastest T20I centuries at the time, showcasing his skill in dismantling bowling attacks with pure timing and calculated aggression.

IPL Highlights
Rohit’s success story extends to the Indian Premier League, where he has scored two centuries. His first came in 2012—an unbeaten 109* against Kolkata Knight Riders—and his second, in 2024, was a commanding 105* against Chennai Super Kings. But his IPL legacy is not limited to personal milestones; he has been the architect of Mumbai Indians’ dominance, captaining them to five championship titles and becoming one of the most successful leaders in the league’s history.

A Career Defined by Versatility
Rohit Sharma’s centuries across formats reflect not just talent, but adaptability and composure. He has the rare ability to build innings patiently in Tests, dominate bowlers in ODIs, and explode from ball one in T20s. His legacy is already secured, but with his form and hunger for runs showing no signs of fading, fans can expect many more milestones from one of cricket’s modern greats.
