It was on December 8, 2011 when Virender Sehwag became just the second batsman in the history of the sport to score a double century in ODIs. Sehwag went on to score 219 runs against West Indies at the Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore. Sehwag smashed 25 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.
