10 Batsmen with most 100s in ODI cricket 

Australia v India - Tri-Series Game 7
Sachin Tendulkar

#4. Sanath Jayasuriya

England v Sri Lanka - 1st Natwest One Day International Series
Sanath Jayasuriya

Sanath Jayasuriya shall go down as one of the most destructive openers in ODI cricket. Sri Lankan diminutive opener's transformation from a pinch hitter to a front-line opener is one of the major success stories of ODI cricket.

Jayasuriya flayed attacks with his aggressive strokeplay and brutal power hitting. The Matra Mauler thrived on batting friendly sub-continent pitches and scored some whirlwind tons to win games for Sri Lanka.

In a career spanning almost two decades, the attacking opener brought up 28 tons to finish as the island nation’s leading century-maker in ODIs.
