India’s captain reached 200 off just 117 balls, nine fewer than the previous record, before going on to 223 off 133. His 223 is also the highest individual score in a successful ODI run chase, made as India overhauled 405 in the second match of India’s ODI series against West Indies to win by eight wickets and seal it 2-0. Gill brought up his hundred in 62 balls and never slowed, sharing a 255-run opening stand with Rohit Sharma. His fours and sixes above are to the 200-run mark.
2. Ishan Kishan (IND) – 200 off 126 balls (vs Bangladesh, 2022)

The India wicketkeeper reached 200 off 126 balls against Bangladesh in Chattogram on 10 December 2022, on his way to 210 off 131. It was his maiden ODI century, turned into a double in astonishing time, with 24 fours and 10 sixes. Kishan was 24 at the time and opened the innings, taking the Bangladesh attack apart on a flat pitch. His 210 remains one of the most explosive innings in the format and stood as the fastest 200 for close to four years.
3. Glenn Maxwell (AUS) – 200 off 128 balls (vs Afghanistan, 2023)
| Final | Balls | 4s | 6s | SR | Against | Venue | Date |

It was the first ODI double century made while batting second, and it won the match on its own. Maxwell hit 21 fours and 10 sixes, many while barely able to move his feet, in Mumbai on 7 November 2023. Few innings have combined power and sheer will quite like it.
4. Pathum Nissanka (SL) – 200 off 136 balls (vs Afghanistan, 2024)

5. Chris Gayle (WI) – 200 off 138 balls (vs Zimbabwe, 2015)
| Final | Balls | 4s | 6s | SR | Against | Venue | Date |

It remains one of the cleanest ball-striking displays the format has seen.
7. Shubman Gill (IND) – 200 off 145 balls (vs New Zealand, 2023)
| Final | Balls | 4s | 6s | SR | Against | Venue | Date |

Rohit was dropped early and punished the reprieve, batting through the innings and accelerating ferociously at the death. No one has come within 27 runs of the mark, and it remains the benchmark for a huge ODI innings.
