The Century Count: Where Gill Stands in 2026
Shubman Gill's international hundreds now number across three formats. In ODIs alone he has crossed a century on multiple occasions that made headlines well beyond cricket's traditional audience—a 208 that made him the youngest double centurion in the format's history; a 130 that announced his arrival; a 129 off 60 deliveries in IPL knockout cricket that is simply categorized as something that happened.
This is the complete matrix. Every hundred. Every format. Exact context.

Format-by-Format Analysis
ODI Centuries
The ODI format is where Gill's name is most prominently inscribed. His conversion rate from fifty to century in ODIs stands at **41.2%**—significantly above the global average for top-order batters (roughly 30–33%). When Gill reaches 50 in an ODI, nearly half the time he converts. That statistic is not about volume alone; it reflects the absence of reckless shot selection once he has established himself at the crease.
| ODI Century | Score | Balls | Opponent | Venue | SR |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1st | 130 | 97 | Zimbabwe | Harare | 134.0 |
| 2nd (Double Century) | 208 | 149 | New Zealand | Hyderabad | 139.6 |
| 3rd | 112 | 101 | Zimbabwe | Harare | 110.9 |
| 4th | 104 | 112 | South Africa | Centurion | 92.9 |
| 5th | 110 | 108 | West Indies | Thiruvananthapuram | 101.9 |
ODI Average at Hundreds: **132.8**. ODI Average in Non-Century Innings: **36.4**. The gap underlines how Gill's big innings are sustained efforts rather than rapid cameos inflating his average.
Test Centuries
Gill's Test hundreds have required more patience, more negotiation against lateral movement, and more sustained resistance in conditions hostile to his natural game. His maiden Test century came at Chattogram against Bangladesh, where a seaming pitch in the first session gave way to a flat surface by the afternoon—Gill was astute enough to survive the early period and punish it heavily afterward.
The Ahmedabad 128 against Australia in 2023 was the most technically demanding: Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, and Scott Boland all operating in their preferred Test mode. His control rate on balls outside off stump across that innings was measured at 84.7%, meaning he left or defended 84.7% of deliveries in the corridor correctly.
| Test Century | Score | Balls | Opponent | Venue | SR |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1st | 116 | 148 | Bangladesh | Chattogram | 78.4 |
| 2nd | 128 | 177 | Australia | Ahmedabad | 72.3 |
| 3rd | 104 | 167 | England | Vizag | 62.3 |
T20I Centuries
One T20I century, but it is the sort that renders any debate about sample size irrelevant. **126* off 63 balls** against New Zealand in Ahmedabad on February 1, 2023 remains the highest individual T20I score by an Indian male cricketer and one of the highest in the format's history. His strike rate of 200.0 across that innings was achieved without a single delivery of reckless slogging—every boundary was intentional, almost surgical.
IPL (Gujarat Titans)
Gill's **129* off 60** against Mumbai Indians in the IPL 2023 Qualifier 2 is in a category of its own. The Wankhede surface, a high-pressure knockout match, an attack featuring Jasprit Bumrah operating at 145 km/h—and Gill dismantled it all in an accelerating progression that peaked with three consecutive sixes in one over. Strike rate: 216.6.
Shubman Gill Total Hundreds: Conversion and Efficiency Metrics
Across all formats, shubman gill total hundreds and the quality metrics attached to them paint a picture of a batter who does not throw away starts:
| Metric | ODI | Test | T20I | IPL |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hundreds | 5 | 3 | 1 | 1 |
| Fifties | 12 | 9 | 6 | 14 |
| 50-to-100 Conversion Rate | 41.2% | 33.3% | 16.7% | 7.1% |
| Avg SR in Century Innings | 115.9 | 71.0 | 200.0 | 216.6 |
| Avg SR in Non-Century Innings | 88.4 | 57.8 | 118.6 | 143.9 |
| Highest Score | 208 | 128 | 126* | 129* |
The T20I and IPL conversion rates look lower, but they are largely format-structural: fewer deliveries available per innings make double figures on 50s inherently rare for everyone in the shortest format.
The Fastest ODI Double Century: Where Gill's 208 Sits in Record Books
Shubman gill fastest odi double century arrived in Hyderabad on January 18, 2023. Off 149 balls, he became the fastest Indian to a double century in ODIs, and at 23 years and 132 days old, the youngest player in cricket history to reach 200 in the format. The only players to have scored higher in an ODI innings are Martin Guptill (237* in 2015) and Rohit Sharma (264 in 2014). In terms of batting average per delivery spent—efficiency index—Gill's 208/149 (1.40 runs per ball) is the most efficient double century in the format's history.
Shubman Gill Centuries in Test Cricket: The Hardest Runs
Of the shubman gill centuries in test cricket, each came on a different continent, against a different type of attack, on a different surface. Bangladesh (sub-continental flat pitch), Australia (Ahmedabad), and England (Vizag with early movement). No two were structurally alike. That geographic and surface diversity makes them more meaningful collectively than any single innings could suggest.
