New Delhi, Feb 24:  February 24, 2010 was not just any other day in Indian cricket and for its million fans. It was the day when Sachin Tendulkar -- considered as the 'God of cricket' by many in our country -- became the first male cricketer to score a double-hundred in One-Day Internationals (ODIs).

On this day 10 years back, Tendulkar played an unbeaten knock of 200 against South Africa at the Captain Roop Singh Stadium in Gwalior. On the third delivery of the 50th over bowled by Charl Langeveldt, Tendulkar guided the ball -- bowled well outside off -- towards point and immediately called then skipper M.S. Dhoni for a quick single.
