Friends, cricket is no less than a festival in India, and players are treated like gods. Indian cricket history has seen many great players, including Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli, who have set numerous legendary records. Speaking of King Kohli, he has distanced himself from Test and T20 formats and is focusing solely on ODIs. As he approaches the final stage of his international career, fans are wondering whether Virat Kohli will be able to break Sachin Tendulkar's long-standing record of 100 international centuries. Let's find out how far behind Virat Kohli is from Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar.
Where are the two legends?
Sachin Tendulkar's Century Record
Tests: 51 centuries
ODIs: 49 centuries
Total: 100 international centuries
Sachin is the only cricketer in history to achieve this incredible feat.
Virat Kohli's Current Centuries
Tests: 30 centuries
ODIs: 51 centuries
T20s: 1 century
Total: 82 international centuries
This means Virat needs 19 more centuries to equal Sachin's record and 20 more to break it.
Does Virat have enough time?
Currently, Virat Kohli is 36 years old and will turn 37 on November 5, 2025.
Reports suggest that he may continue playing until the 2027 ODI World Cup.
If so, he could play approximately 35 ODIs in the next two years.
