GWALIOR | Wed Feb 24, 2010 6:22pm IST

GWALIOR (Reuters) - India's Sachin Tendulkar broke the world record for the highest individual score in one-day internationals on Wednesday.

Tendulkar achieved the feat when he reached 195 in the second one-dayer against South Africa.

Pakistan's Saeed Anwar and Zimbabwe's Charles Coventry had jointly held the record with 194.

Anwar made that score against India in May 1997 while Coventry hit 194 not out against Bangladesh last year.
