Highest Score in ODI Cricket: Rohit Sharma's 264 Leads

Rohit Sharma has the highest score in ODI cricket, 264 off 173 balls against Sri Lanka in Kolkata on 13 November 2014. He hit 33 fours and 9 sixes at a strike rate of 152.60, and the innings is 27 runs clear of Guptill's 237 not out, the second-highest score.

India own 6 of the top 10 scores and Rohit 3 of them, the only batter with more than 2 ODI double centuries. Below the top 10 sit Gill's 208 against New Zealand at Hyderabad in 2023, Harry Brook's 202 in 2026, Glenn Maxwell's 201 not out in 2023 and Sachin Tendulkar's 200 not out in 2010.

There have been 14 double centuries in men's ODI cricket, scored by 12 batters, as of 15 November 2026. India have 8 of the 14: Rohit 3, Gill 2, and 1 each for Sehwag, Kishan and Tendulkar. 2 of them came in 2026, Gill's 223 not out and Brook's 202.

The 14 are spread over 16 years. Tendulkar made the first in 2010, and 5 more followed by the end of 2015. 2026 is the first year since 2023 with 2 or more. 2 of the 14 came batting second: Maxwell's 201 not out against Afghanistan at the Wankhede in 2023, and Gill's 223 not out, now the highest ODI score in a chase.

Shubman Gill has the highest score in ODI cricket in 2026, 223 not out off 133 balls against West Indies in Guwahati on 30 September. Gill was captain, hit 26 fours and 8 sixes, and his 2026 total of 932 runs at 93.20 leads our most runs in ODI 2026 board.

Brook's 202 came off 116 balls at Rawalpindi on 22 October, a strike rate of 174.13, the fastest of all 14 ODI double centuries. England still lost: Rathnayake made 130 in the same match. Duckett, Gill and Rathnayake have 3 hundreds each in 2026 on the ODI centuries board.

Sachin Tendulkar scored the first double century in ODI cricket, 200 not out off 147 balls against South Africa in Gwalior on 24 February 2010. He hit 25 fours and 3 sixes at a strike rate of 136.05.

Sehwag passed it 22 months later with 219 at Indore on 8 December 2011, and Rohit took the record to 264 in 2014. All 3 record-holders since 2010 are Indian, and all 3 innings came in India.

Rohit Sharma's highest score in ODI cricket is 264, the world record, and he has 3 of the 14 ODI double centuries: 209 against Australia in 2013, 264 against Sri Lanka in 2014 and 208 not out off 153 balls against Sri Lanka in Mohali in 2017.

His best in 2026 is 138, part of 627 runs in 15 ODIs at an average of 41.8 on his ODI player page. Our Rohit Sharma ODI runs guide breaks the year down innings by innings, and our most centuries in ODI cricket guide covers his hundreds against the all-time list.

The highest score in women's ODI cricket is 232 not out by Amelia Kerr for New Zealand against Ireland in Dublin on 13 June 2018. Belinda Clark's 229 not out for Australia against Denmark in 1997 is second, the first double century in any ODI.

Clark's 229 came 13 years before Tendulkar's 200, so a woman, not a man, made the first ODI double century. Chamari Athapaththu's 195 not out against South Africa in 2024 is third.
