List of One Day International cricket double centuries

India's Rohit Sharma is the only player in ODI history to have scored 200 or more runs in a single innings on more than one occasion.

A double century (200 runs or more) in One Day Internationals (ODIs) has been scored on 6 occasions by 5 different batsmen from three of the ten Test-cricket playing nations.^[1] No player from Australia, Bangladesh, England, Pakistan, South Africa, Sri Lanka or Zimbabwe has scored 200.^[1]

The first ODI double century was achieved by Sachin Tendulkar for India against South Africa in 2010 during the second ODI of the bilateral series in Gwalior. The frequency of a batsman scoring an ODI double century is slightly less than that of a bowler taking a Test hat-trick (6 double centuries versus 39 hat-tricks as of August 2015).^[2] The most double centuries by players from one country is four by India. Two double centuries have been scored in World Cup matches, both in the 2015 tournament.
