Sachin Tendulkar 200 ... Love you sachin







Sachin Tendulkar has now got almost every batting records in ODI cricket in his name. When no one had ever got a 200 plus score in ODI cricket, Sachin smashed a double century in 2nd ODI against South Africa. Opening in the inning, Tendulkar looked highly aggressive and on the way got past 194- the highest score in an inning made by a batsman in ODI cricket. The record was held by Saeed Anwar of Pakistan as well as Conventry of Zimbabwe.


Sachin Tendulkar slammed his 46th ODI century leading India to a strong 200 run-mark in the second ODI against South Africa in Gwalior. Tendulkar reached the mark in 90 balls with 13 fours.

It was a poor start for India as Virender Sehwag departed after scoring mere nine runs.

Earlier, Captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni won the toss and elected to bat. India have retained the same side that won the opening one-dayer by a run in Jaipur.

Trailing 0-1 in the series, South Africa have made three changes in their bid to level the series.

Hashim Amla, JP Duminy and Roelof van der Merwe have been included in place of Loots Bosman, Albie Morkel and Johan Botha.

Teams:
India: Mahendra Singh Dhoni (c), Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag, Virat Kohli, Suresh Raina, Yusuf Pathan, Dinesh Karthik, Ravindra Jadeja, Praveen Kumar, Ashish Nehra, S Sreesanth

South Africa: Jacques Kallis (c), Hashim Amla, Herschelle Gibbs, AB de Villiers, JP Duminy, Alviro Petersen, Mark Boucher, Roelof van der Merwe, Wayne Parnell, Dale Steyn, Charl Langeveldt.
