Virat Kohli Stats: Career Runs, Centuries and Records

Virat Kohli career by format

ODIs are the centre of the career. The official ledger reads 317 games, 15,109 runs and 55 centuries, topped by 183. That knock came off 148 balls versus Pakistan at Mirpur (18 Mar 2012). He also owns 5 ODI wickets.

Tests yield 9,230 runs from 123 outings, with 30 centuries and 254* as the peak. The full-scorecard table shows 31 half-centuries and a 46.85 average, scored more slowly at 55.58, with 1,028 fours.

T20Is contribute 4,188 runs in 125 games and one century, the 122* that stands as his official T20I best. That innings is missing from the 118 fully scored T20Is here, so the table below peaks at 94* versus West Indies (6 Dec 2019).

IPL: 9,336 runs, 9 tons and a ceiling of 113*, every run for Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Summed over the 552 internationals carrying a full scorecard, the batting table reaches 28,012.

Centuries, big scores and the best years

The official century count splits as 30 Test, 55 ODI and 1 T20I, plus 9 in the IPL. The list below holds 54 of the ODI tons and every Test one that has a full scorecard.

His biggest innings are all Tests. Seven double hundreds lead the highest-scores table, starting with 254* against South Africa (10 Oct 2019), then 243 and 213 against Sri Lanka in 2017 and 235 against England in Dec 2016. The ODI best of 183 is the only one-day knock in that top ten.

The runs-by-year table shows a peak from 2016 to 2019. He made 2,595 international runs at 86.50 in 2016, then 2,818 in 2017 and 2,735 in 2018, with 11 hundreds in each of those last two years. By contrast, 2020 and 2021 brought no hundreds at all, before 2023 lifted him back to 1,993 runs and 8 hundreds.

IPL seasons, opponents and recent form

Every IPL run has come for Royal Challengers Bengaluru. The standout is 2016: 973 runs at 81.08 with 4 hundreds and 38 sixes, the best season in the table below and a large part of the IPL 2016 records. The later years hold up well: 741 runs in 2024, 657 a year later and 675 in 2026, that last haul coming at a strike rate of 165.85.

No team has leaked more to him than Australia: 5,551 runs and 17 centuries across 106 meetings. Among the major sides, Pakistan bring out his best average (63.50) and England his lowest (41.39).

In his last 10 matches on record, the high point is an unbeaten 105 from 60 balls for RCB versus Kolkata Knight Riders (13 May 2026), which followed two ducks in the days before. The three ODIs against England in Jul 2026 returned 5, then 65, then 74. See how he ranks in most runs in ODI cricket and most international centuries.
