Here are five IPL legends who haven’t scored a century yet:

1 MS Dhoni

It is not accurate to judge Dhoni’s career by looking at the number of hundreds he has scored given the fact that he bats down the order. But it is surprising that Dhoni hasn’t managed to hit a single hundred in his long and running IPL career which spans over 234 matches. His highest score is 84 which came against RCB in 2019 at The Chinnaswamy Stadium. Dhoni will return for another stint with the CSK for IPL 2023 and it will be interesting to see if he managed to score his maiden ton.

2 Gautam Gambhir

Nowadays, it is unheard of for a top-order batsman who plays regularly and still doesn’t have a century in T20 cricket as the top order gets to play the majority number of balls. Gautam Gambhir played in 154 matches and 11 seasons but still couldn’t manage to hit a century despite opening the innings. He is one of the leading run scorers in the IPL yet doesn’t have one record which he would’ve liked. His highest score is 93 vs RCB in 2012.

5 Kieron Pollard
