Virender Sehwag ODI World Record 219 vs West Indies at Indore
4TH ODI - INDIA VS WEST INDIES - INDORE, DEC 8
Sehwag's One-Day Record 219 wins series
Dec 8, 2011
Virender Sehwag broke the world record for highest individual ODI score, getting to 219 from 149 balls (he needed just 140 balls to get his double-century), and taking India to its highest ever team total of 418/5. The 33-year-old right-hand bat surpassed the previous record of 200* by Sachin Tendulkar from 147 balls, against South Africa in Gwailor in 2010. India’s stand-in captain's brutal 149-ball innings included world record-equalling 25 fours and seven sixes. He also became the fastest Indian to score an ODI 150, taking only 112 balls to reach the milestone. It was the 33-year-old Sehwag's 240th one-day international appearance. His first 50 came in 41 balls (55 in 15th over), second in 28 balls (100 in 23rd), third in 43 balls (150 in 36th) and fourth 50 in 28 balls (200 in 44th).
The Indian spinners took nine of the ten wickets with debutant Rahul Sharma claiming three wickets off the last ball of each of his first three overs, and Ravindra Jadeja turning in remarkable figures of 3 for 34 to get West Indies out for 265 with 4 balls to spare. Irfan Pathan, who was recalled for the last two ODIs, remained on the sidelines.

I'm very tired because I'm 33-years-old. I'm an old man and my back and glutes are tight.

India lead the five-match series 2-1, with the final contest taking place in Chennai on Sunday.
