List Of Virat Kohli Centuries In Australia: Virat Kohli, one of the most prolific batsmen in international cricket, has a remarkable record of scoring centuries across the globe. His performances in Australia show his capability to deliver on the bigger stage, especially against Aussies who are known for testing pitches and formidable opposition.

He has a total of 10 centuries in Australia, with 7 in Tests and 3 in ODIs. Currently, he has retired from the T20 format and the Test. In T20, he has only one century against Afghanistan in the T20 World Cup 2021, an innings of 122.

In the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2014-15, his form was unreal, where he smashed 4 centuries in that series against the mighty Aussie bowling attack of Mitchell Starc, Mitchell Johnson, Shane Watson, and Nathan Lyon.

India lost 1st two tests in the series and tied the remaining two. His centuries under that situation with a new responsibility of captaincy showed his unreal potential to contribute to India in the upcoming years, which he gracefully did.
