England v India: 4th npower Test - Day Four
The belligerent opener Virender Sehwag features twice on this list

#1 329 against Sri Lanka at Galle, 2010

First Test - Day Two:  India v Australia
Virender Sehwag stayed at the crease for 231 deliveries and hit 201

The 2010 tour of Sri Lanka was an eminently forgettable one for the Indians as they struggled against Ajantha Mendis and regularly found themselves on the wrong side of the DRS. However, the 2nd Test at Galle was the only bright point in the series for them as they registered an excellent win. It was set up by India's first innings and in particular through the batting of belligerent opener Virender Sehwag, who went after the Sri Lankan spinners from the outset.

After the openers, Sehwag and Gautam Gambhir (56), had put on 167 for the first wicket, India lost their way. Rahul Dravid went for 2, while Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly scored 5 and 0 respectively. Sehwag stayed at the crease for 231 deliveries and hit 201, which included 22 boundaries as well as 4 sixes. It is incredible that India ended up scoring only 329 and it remains the lowest total by India in a Test innings in which a batsman got a double hundred.
