Most hundreds in History of One Day Cricket

November 24, 2020 By Sourav

---

The earliest match now recognized as an ODI was played between England and Australia in January 1971; since then there have been over 3,000 ODIs played by 25 teams. The frequency of matches has steadily increased, partly because of the increase in the number of ODI-playing countries, and partly as the cricket boards of those nations seek to maximize their revenue. Here we have compiled the list of Most Hundreds in the history of ODI cricket.
