3) Martin Guptill- 237
Words can’t describe how good this knock was. The New Zealand opener was breathing fire that day as he went on to score 237 against the West Indies (WI) in 2015. This knock happens to be the second-highest knock in terms of runs in the history of ODI cricket.
What makes this double hundred even better is the fact that it came in the quarter-final of the 2015 World Cup. While scoring a hundred in a knockout match is considered as one of the hardest things to do, Guptill scored a double hundred. This also happens to be the highest score in a World Cup match.
However, Martin Guptill’s innings were almost over before it began. On his third ball, he flicked a full Jerome Taylor ball only for Marlon Samuels to drop the chance. This the only reason why this knock is placed third and not first or second. Guptill went on to score the most number of runs in the 2015 World Cup and this knock helped him do so.
