Sachin’s previous best was an unbeaten 186 against New Zealand at Hyderabad, in 1999. Tendulkar, who registered his 46th ODI century in the process, got to 200 with a single off Charl Langeveldt in the final over of the game, having earlier broken the World record for the highest individual innings, of 194, jointly held by Pakistan’s Saeed Anwar and Zimbabwe’s Charles Coventry.
