Since his debut in 2010, Williamson has been the cornerstone of his country, establishing a strong reputation in the golden era through his exceptional talent and leadership. 

In an era where everyone is seen taking an aggressive approach, Kane Williamson showcased his calm and composure, earning respect as one of the most-liked cricketers in the world and a spot in the Fab Four of cricket history, alongside Virat Kohli, Joe Root, and Steve Smith.

Alongside his numbers, Kane Williamson's captaincy and leadership style were much admired, as he led the BlackCaps in all three formats during a golden period from 2016-2024, during which they reached two ICC World Cup Finals, three semi-finals, and won the inaugural ICC World Test Championship in 2021.

Kane Williamson Centuries in Test

At just 19, Kane Williamson made his Test debut on November 4, 2010. Displaying maturity beyond his age, he scored 131 runs in his first innings, joining the elite list of players who have scored a century on their Test debut. 

His Test career is characterised by consistency and the ability to set and break records. 

For the unversed, Williamson scored the most Test runs for New Zealand in 2015, amassing 1,172 runs in 16 innings across 8 matches at a remarkable average of 90.15. This record-breaking year included 5 centuries, which set the record for the most centuries hit by a New Zealander in a single calendar year.

Moreover, he also became the thirteenth batter to score a century against all the other Test-playing nations, achieving this in the fewest innings and the quickest time from his Test debut. He also set a new record for scoring the most centuries, 33, by a New Zealand player in the longest format. 

Kane Williamson Centuries in ODIs

Unlike his Test debut, Williamson’s journey in the One-day Internationals (ODIs) began with a rocky start against India on August 10, 2010. Notably, in his maiden ODI, he was dismissed for a 9-ball duck. 

Nonetheless, he went on to establish himself in the format, evolving into a consistent run-scorer for the BlackCaps. 

On October 14, 2010, against Bangladesh in Dhaka, he scored his maiden ODI century.

By the time he announced his retirement, Kane Williamson had scored 15 centuries. Out of 175 ODI appearances, he amassed 7,256 runs at a strong average of 48.69, putting him fourth on New Zealand's all-time list for both ODI runs and centuries.

Kane Williamson T20I Centuries 

Kane Williamson’s T20I career can be defined by his composed batting and exceptional leadership, culminating in 2,575 runs across 93 matches. 

He holds the record for the most T20I wins by a New Zealand captain with 39 victories in 75 matches. 

However, he has never scored a century in the format. In his 93-match T20I career, his highest score was 95 runs (off 48 balls) against India in January 2020.

Notably, on November 1, 2025, he retired from international T20s to focus on Test cricket.

Kane Williamson IPL Centuries

Williamson made his Indian Premier League (IPL) debut in 2015 for the Hyderabad team as a backup to David Warner and thus did not get many opportunities in the early seasons. In the 2018 edition, Kane was appointed the captain of Hyderabad in the absence of David Warner. 

He had a prolific tournament, finishing as the highest run-scorer (735 runs) and leading his team to the final, where they lost to Chennai.

In 2023, the Kiwi great joined Gujarat Titans, starting afresh after an eight-session stint with Hyderabad.

After being released by GT following the 2024 season, Williamson went unsold at the IPL auction.

However, in his IPL career, Kane never scored a hundred.
