New Delhi: Apart from Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar, no player has been able to score centuries of a century in international cricket. Talking about active players, Virat Kohli is at the top of the list with 70 international centuries and now he is followed by Joe Root at number two. Joe Root has overtaken David Warner by scoring a century in the second innings of the Edgbaston Test.
This was Root's 44th international century, while Warner has scored 43 centuries in international cricket. However, it is going to be very difficult for Root to reach No.1 or stay at No.2. In fact, Root is just playing Test cricket and in the ODI and T20 format, he is not included in the England team, while Virat Kohli, David Warner play in all the three formats of cricket. Overall talking, Sachin has 100 international centuries to his name, while Ricky Ponting is second on the list with 71 international centuries.
At the third spot is the name of former Team India captain Virat Kohli, while the fourth place is occupied by Sri Lanka's wicketkeeper-batsman Kumar Sangakkara, who has scored a total of 63 international centuries. But since November 2019, Kohli has not scored a single international century. Virat is only a step away from Ricky Ponting in terms of most centuries at the moment.
