In the current edition, Virat is yet to score a century in this 16th edition. He has scored 333 runs so far and if the King scores two or more tons this season then he will be the first player to achieve the rare feat of scoring the most centuries in a single season of this tournament twice in his glorious career.

Till now, Jos Buttler has scored 297 runs with no centuries

3. Shikhar Dhawan
