Tendulkar achieves highest ODI score in history

Sachin Tendulkar created cricketing history on Wednesday by becoming the first player in the history of ODI cricket to score a double century.

Tendulkar blasted 200 not out off only 147 balls, including 25 fours and three sixes, as India recorded a remarkable total of 401-3 off 50 overs against South Africa.

He overtakes Charles Coventry from Zimbabwe as the leading run scorer in a single innings in the history of the game.
