Mumbai Indians (MI) is one of the most successful teams in the Indian Premier League (IPL), boasting five trophies to its name. This record is shared with Chennai Super Kings (CSK). Over the past decade, Mumbai has emerged as the most dominant team, having won five titles under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma.

Several batsmen have captured everyone's attention with their magnificent performances for this franchise. While many batsmen have performed consistently well over the years, only a select few have succeeded in scoring a century while donning the MI jersey—thereby elevating their game to new heights.
