Centi means hundredth and milli means thousandth, and one hundredth is larger than one thousandth.

Except that the question, as stated, has no meaning. A centilitre is a measure of volume, with dimensions [L3]. A millimetre is a measure of distance, with dimensions [L]. The two measure different things and basic dimensional analysis teaches that you cannot compare measures with different dimensions such as these without additional information.
