David Warner Equals Virat Kohli's Historic Record for Most T20 Centuries
Australian veteran David Warner has achieved a significant milestone in T20 cricket, smashing his ninth career century in the Big Bash League (BBL) 2025-26. Playing for the Sydney Thunder, Warner's scintillating knock saw him equal the record for the most T20 centuries, a record previously held jointly by IPL superstar Virat Kohli and South Africa's Rilee Rossouw.
Warner, who has been a dominant force in the IPL for years, demonstrated that his power-hitting ability remains world-class, even after stepping away from international red-ball cricket. This achievement places him in the most elite company in the shortest format, underscoring his enduring value as a top-order batsman globally. His form will be closely watched by fans ahead of the next IPL season, where he remains a key figure for his franchise.
“In the previous encounter, the 39-year-old hit a scintillating century, which was also the ninth century of his T20 career, as he equalled Virat Kohli and Rilee Rossouw's record for most centuries in the shortest format.”
