Virender Sehwag Wishes Dale Steyn In His Own Style

The Nawab of Najafgarh, Virender Sehwag, during his playing days was nothing less than a menace for the opposition bowlers, as he decimated them for fun. Sehwag’s rivalries with several renowned bowlers played a key role in making Test cricket an exhilarating outing. One of those bowlers was none other than South Africa’s express pacer and all time great Dale Steyn.

 

Steyn and Sehwag over the years have been involved in numerous clashes as both the aggressive men looked to dominate each other. As a rivalry, the adjective fierce seems underwhelming, as both the individuals were world class cricketers and the biggest match winners for their respective sides. Hence whenever India and South Africa met in a Test match, the rivalry between Sehwag and Steyn would pretty much dictate the outcome of the game.

 

Having retired from the game for a good couple of years now, Sehwag is an active commentator and social networker. Known for his habit of tweeting on birthdays, Sehwag made a heartwarming tweet for his rival of the past Dale Steyn, on the latter’s birthday.

 

With Steyn turning a year older today, Sehwag tweeted, “Happy Birthday Cricket’s James Bond, Steyn Gun @DaleSteyn62 .The stains you caused to the stumps and batsman’s toes can’t ever be erased .”

 

With Sehwag being at his best, the South African responded humbly, adding that Sehwag’s words meant a lot to him. “Viru! You legend! Thanx a mill bud,” wrote Steyn in response. Below are the two tweets, highlighting the friendship between the two stars.
