Scoring a century in T20I cricket isn’t a cakewalk. The limited number of balls, coupled with a risk-taking approach, means batters often don’t get closer to the triple-digit figures.

But a few batters smashed hundreds by taking calculated risks, that too against India. The Indian team has had a quality bowling attack. So, it’s not easy to score runs for the opponent batters.

But with helpful conditions at their disposal, some batters managed to get a hundred against the Indian unit. This article will list those batters with centuries against India in the T20I format.
