Virat Kohli’s 100th T20 Half-Century A Landmark for King

Virat Kohli, one of cricket’s modern-day legends, reached a historic milestone during IPL 2025 by scoring his 100th half-century in T20 cricket. The iconic knock came in Match 28 against Rajasthan Royals at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur, where Kohli played a match-winning unbeaten innings of 62 off 45 balls. The knock also marked his 66th 50+ score in the IPL, placing him joint-highest with David Warner in terms of 50+ scores in the league. This feat cements Kohli’s position as a consistent performer in the shortest format of the game and showcases his longevity and class over the years.
