Coventry equals Anwar's ODI record

Charles Coventry - with a highest of 74 before Sunday in One-Day Internationals - equaled Saeed Anwar's record of playing the highest individual innings in ODIs with an unbeaten 194 from 156 balls.

Had the non-striker Prosper Utseya showed some commonsense and given him the strike in the last over, Coventry would have broken the world record and could have also become the first batsman to score a double-century in ODIs.
