While Sachin scored the first double hundred, there was speculation for Sehwag to score 200 in a ODI for a long time. On December 8th 2011, Sehwag did what everyone had been expecting.
In the process, India scored their highest ODI total - 419. Despite this being a low-key series against the regular visitors to India, West Indies, Sehwag captaining the side in Dhoni's absence had a point to prove after his cheap dismissals in the previous match. Sehwag scored well in all areas of the ground even though 120 of his runs came on the leg-side.
The match was a formality after such an assault by a batsman who plays test matches like T20. The Windies capitulated with Ramdin being the sole fighter. The Indian bowlers like Jadeja and Rahul Sharma picked up wickets to hasten the end.
