Indian opener Virender Sehwag, who scored 201 in the first innings of the third and final Test against Pakistan in Bangalore, joined a unique club of players who scored a double-century but ended up on the losing side. West Indies batting ace Brian Lara is the only player to have done it twice, while Sehwag is the first Indian to perform this feat. The following are the details: | Batsman | Score | For | Vs | Venue | Season | | RT Ponting | 242 | Aus | Ind | Adelaide | 2003-04 | | NJ Astle | 222 | NZ | Eng | Christchurch | 2001-02 | | BC Lara | 221 | WI | SL | Colombo (SSC) | 2001-02 | | VT Trumper | 214* | Aus | SA | Adelaide | 1910-11 | | RG Pollock | 209 | SA | Aus | Cape Town | 1966-67 | | RN Harvey | 205 | Aus | SA | Melbourne | 1952-53 | | GA Faulkner | 204 | SA | Aus | Melbourne | 1910-11 | | ML Hayden | 203 | Aus | Ind | Chennai | 2000-01 | | DL Amiss | 203 | Eng | WI | The Oval | 1976 | | L Hutton | 202* | Eng | WI | The Oval | 1950 | | BC Lara | 202 | WI | SA | Johannesburg | 2003-04 | | ES Gregory | 201 | Aus | Eng | Sydney | 1894-95 | | V Sehwag | 201 | Ind | Pak | Bangalore | 2005 |
