Virat Kohli has scored 31 centuries as a captain across formats which is already a record for most centuries by an Indian Captain across formats. Now he can look to dethrone South Africa's talismanic skipper Graeme Smith from the 2nd position as he has 33 centuries as a captain for South Africa in 368 innings. Virat has 31 centuries in 136 innings as a captain.

Virat has to play 5 more international matches against the West Indies before his birthday so, he has 6 potential chances of scoring 3 more centuries to go past Smith's record. And he will also become the fastest to the 34 centuries as captain. This will also reduce the distance between him and the first placed Ricky Ponting who has 41 centuries as captain to his name.
