List of international cricket centuries by Chris Gayle
Gayle made his ODI debut in 1999 against India,[11] and his maiden century in the format came three years later against Kenya at the Simba Union Ground.[12] His highest score of 215 came during the 2015 Cricket World Cup against Zimbabwe at the Manuka Oval, Canberra. With five scores over 150 in ODIs, he is joint-third in the list.[n 3] Gayle has scored ODI centuries at nineteen different cricket grounds. Eighteen of his ODI centuries came at fifteen different venues outside the West Indies.[14][15] Along with Shikhar Dhawan, Herschelle Gibbs, and Sourav Ganguly, Gayle holds the record for the most centuries in the ICC Champions Trophy, with three.[16]
Having made his first T20I appearance in February 2006, Gayle became the first player to score a century in the format when he made 117 against South Africa in the first match of the 2007 ICC World Twenty20.[17] As of July 2018, he is one of nine players to have scored more than one century in the format.[19] As of 2019, he is eleventh overall—tied with Sanath Jayasuriya—among all-time century-makers in international cricket.[20]
