Virender Sehwag:
There have been very few batsmen as fearsome as Virender Sehwag in international cricket. Everybody knew on his day, there was no opposition too strong for Virender Sehwag, and no stadium too big. Sehwag was most probably the only player whose fans had the stats in hand to challenge Sachin Tendulkar’s in terms of sheer numbers.
However, despite a stellar Test career, Virender Sehwag’s last Test was not at all a good one for him. But it was a great test for India, having won by an innings and 135 runs. However despite the astonishing win, Sehwag only scored 6 runs in the first innings, and Jadeja and Ashwin wrapped up the Australia innings quickly, resulting in a great victory for India. But nobody ever denies, it was a sad ending to a great player’s career.
