List of Men's T20 World Cup centuries
[3] As of the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup, the most recent to take place, there have been eleven centuries scored by ten players.[4] The first century in an ICC Men's T20 World Cup match was scored by Chris Gayle of the West Indies.[6] Gayle's 100 runs in 50 balls remained the fastest Men's T20 World Cup century for almost nine years until he broke his own record during the 2016 ICC T20 World Cup when he scored an unbeaten 100 runs in 47 balls against England at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai.[4][9] Gayle's 117 runs remained the highest individual score in the Men's T20 World Cup for almost five years until Brendon McCullum of New Zealand broke it during the 2012 edition.[8] The second and third batsmen to score a century in the championship were Suresh Raina of India and Mahela Jayawardene of Sri Lanka respectively, both during the 2010 ICC Men's T20 World Cup.
