Yet Another Sachin Record - Sachin slams 200

Batting legend Sachin Tendulkar added yet another feather to his cap when he became the first batsman to cross the 200-run mark in an ODI at the Captain Roop Singh Stadium in Gwalior today on the 24th February 2010. Sachin achieved the unique landmark when he ran a single off Langeveldt of South Africa in the second one-dayer of the ongoing three-match series.


Sachin's 200 came off 147 balls, which include 25 fours and 3 sixes.
The master surpassed the previous highest individual score made by Pakistan's Saeed Anwar (194 against India in 1997) and Charles Coventry of Zimbabwe (194 not out against Bangladesh in 1999).

Tendulkar started his innings aggressively and made a quick-fire 37-ball fifty before finally completing his century in 90 balls. Sachin extended his lead for the record of most number of centuries to 17 as Ricky Ponting lies in the second place with 29 centuries.

Tendulkar continued his record breaking form as he had slammed his 46th Test ton in the final match of the longer version of the game against the Proteas earlier.

After losing Virender Sehwag (9) early in the innings, Tendulkar put on 194-run partnership with Dinesh Karthik (79 off 85 balls), who slammed his fourth ODI fifty, against South Africa.

Earlier, India skipper MS Dhoni won the toss and elected to bat against South Africa in the second One-dayer of the three match series.
