Guptill probably. I still have a soft spot for Sachin's 200, which came on a patta and a tiny ground but against a high quality attack.

Nowadays anybody can score double 100's against weak teams like WI on flat pitches and small grounds. Rohit's doubles were much better against tougher opposition on bigger grounds and in relatively more difficult conditions.

Probably Guptil as it came in a QF of WC None of them has come against a decent attack
Steyn, Morkel is decent attack

In Sachin's 200, the pitch was a part but Steyn compensated with 150 kph yorkers (used to be fast then). Sachin just flicked them over mid wicket for fours. I haven' seen such scary bowling in other 200s.

Sachins 200 was against the best attack followed by rohits 209 which is criminally underrated. Just 264 automatically qualifies it pretty high,that is Herculean. Gutpill is 4th,followed by sehwag and gayle

Tendulkar's easily. Considering his age, the heat, etc and more importantly the opposition. He didn't play too many aerial shots in his innings (just 3 sixes), more relied on dissecting all around the ground, that too against SA fieldsmen. And a bowling attack comprising Steyn, Langeveldt, Kallis, etc. Plus no dropped catches.

Duminy is good enough to destroy Lungans. van der Merwe was doing very well at that point. Kallis was a nobody of course. I thought Langeveldt was around, and he's an ODI specialist.
