5 oldest centurions playing in IPL 2025

The IPL 2025 has started and though there are going to be many young generation players who will feature in the tournament, there will also be some veterans in the game as well. Though it is Adam Gilchrist who is the oldest player to score a century in the IPL, it is time to discuss who is the oldest player to score a century among the current veterans in this current edition.

Some of these players have been playing the tournament from its initial stages and have continued to score runs for their teams. These are the players who have proven to the fans and the pundits that age is just a number, and they can continue to contribute with the bat even though they are not really in the prime of their careers anymore. A century is still a rare landmark in the shortest format, and these are the players who have managed to achieve this feat. Some of them also have IPL Orange Cap to their name previously.

5 Oldest centurions playing in IPL 2025

5. Suryakumar Yadav (33y 235d) 

This was a terrible season for the Mumbai Indians, and this was one of the rare matches of the year that went their way. The MI bowlers managed to restrict them to a score of 173 and this is where Suryakumar Yadav continued his assault on the Hyderabad bowlers and scored 102 off just 51, and it came at a time when the team was struggling at 31-3. The ace batter's astonishing knock included a dozen of boundaries and six sixes, and was 33 years old at the time. 

The cricketer is still part of the MI squad and is one of their star batters. He will be leading the team in the opening fixture of the tournament against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) due to Hardik Pandya being banned due to his slow-over rate offence last season.
