List of Big Bash League centuries

In cricket, a batsman reaches a century when he scores 100 or more runs in a single innings. A century is regarded as a landmark score for a batsman, and his number of centuries is generally recorded in his career statistics.^[1] The Big Bash League (BBL) is a professional league for Twenty20 cricket in Australia, which has been held annually since its first edition in 2011–12. In the five seasons played including the ongoing one, 13 centuries have been scored by 11 different centurions. Batsmen from six of the eight franchises have scored centuries; the only franchises that have not had a player score a century for them are Sydney Sixers and Hobart Hurricanes.

The first century in BBL was scored in the second match on 17 December 2011 at Melbourne Cricket Ground, Melbourne made by David Warner for Sydney Thunder against the Melbourne Stars.^[2] Since then, 12 more centuries have been scored, including four in the current edition. Of the 13 centuries, only three have been scored by overseas batsmen, i.e. non-Australians (two by Luke Wright and one by Chris Gayle), while 10 of those have been scored by Australian batsmen. Craig Simmons , Usman Khawaja and Luke Wright are the only batsmen to score two centuries in the league's history.^[3]

The below list includes all BBL centuries organised in a chronological order. Teams are initially listed in alphabetical order.^{[lower-alpha 1][lower-alpha 2]}
