Tendulkar's ODI 200 among top sports moments

London: Iconic Indian batsman Sachin Tendulkar's record-breaking One-Day
International double century has found a place in the Times magazine's top
ten sports moments of the year.

"Certain sports milestones seem simply unreachable: In cricket, it's the
one-day double hundred: no man had ever produced 200 runs for his team
during a one-day international match," The Times said.

"In February, however, India's Sachin Tendulkar, the greatest run scorer of
all-time, hit the magic milestone against a powerful South African squad. -

It was a great innings played in a near-meaningless game. As such, it pales
behind one day innings such as Gilchrist's 149 in the last World Cup final.
