It was on this day, ten years ago, when former India batter Virender Sehwag became just the second player in the history of ODI cricket to score a double century. Sehwag, went on to score 219 runs against West Indies at the Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore.

The 41-year-old smashed 41 fours and seven sixes to register the score of 219 against West Indies and this knock by the batsman enabled India to post a score of 418/5 in the allotted fifty overs. India then went on to win the match by 153 runs. In his cricketing career, Sehwag played 251 ODIs and 104 Tests for India amassing 8,273 and 8,586 runs respectively.
