Sachin Tendulkar hits double century, video highlights, scores 200 not out in Ind vs SA 2nd ODI
Indian master blaster Sachin Tendulkar created history on Wednesday by slamming the first ever double century in the history of ODI cricket.
Batting first after India had won the toss, Tendulkar batted his way into the annals by breaking a 13 year old record – which had earlier been equalled – by scoring a double century.
India were buoyed by Tendulkar’s presence at the crease and ended with 401/3 in the fifty overs – their third ever total over 400 in the ODIs – and enhanced their chances of winning the series.
India already lead 1-0 after having won the first ODI that was played at Jaipur earlier this week.
India had lost Virender Sehwag early, but in the company of Dinesh Karthik who scored 79, Yusuf Pathan, who made 36 off 23 and MS Dhoni who went on to smash a 35-ball 68, Tendulkar batted like a true magician to get to that most coveted landmark.

Sachin is on a roll – as he so often is – I feel proud to share the soil of my country with such a legend. There have been some arm chair cricket specialists who have – not so long ago

There are many things in India that make us frustrated but when Sachin is on a roll – as he so often is – I feel proud to share the soil of my country with such a legend. There have been some arm chair cricket specialists who have – not so long ago – questioned why Sachin was still playing and with performances such as… this answers their questions. Keep it up Sachin and hope you will soon have the record of scoring centuries in first class cricket even when you cross 40 years. More than anything he is a very good human being and has always shown his two feet are planted so firmly on the ground – something many of other sportspersons can lack
