Since the last Test series between Australia and India in Australia, the word ‘babysitting’ has become very famous. Before the beginning of the recently concluded T20I series between India and Australia in India, Virender Sehwag trolled Australia with the babysitting advertisement. As India lost the T20I series, Virender Sehwag has hilariously comeback with a new ad.
During the MCG Test in last December, Australian captain and wicketkeeper Tim Paine sledged the Indian wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant with the babysitting comment. Later, Rishabh Pant had a friendly reply with real babysitting of Tim Paine’s child.
Before the beginning of Australia tour in India, the former Indian attacking opening batsman Virender Sehwag took a dig at the Australian team with a babysitting advertisement. The broadcast channel Star Sports came with that advertisement. In one segment of that ad, the former Aussie opener Matthew Hayden defended the Australian side.
Every baby needs a babysitter – ?? and ?? would remember this well! ?

This friendly banter has now entered to the new level now. After losing the two-match T20I series by 2-0, India is now set to start the home ODI series against Australia. India and Australia will now play the five-match ODI series from 2nd March to 13th March.
The babysitting advertisement has been backfired to Virender Sehwag after India’s latest T20I series defeat. In the new hilarious Star Sports ad, Virender Sehwag seemed under pressure for his own babysitting words.
The ad starts with Australia’s latest T20I series victory against India in India. Then, Virender Sehwag joins in the action.
Over a phone call, Virender Sehwag said, “Hello, Bhai kya kar rahe ho tumlog yaar? Maine itne ad mein bol diya ki humlog babysitting karenge. Aur tum, bhai dekh lo, marwa mat dena yaar.”
.@virendersehwag's belief and #TeamIndia’s babysitting skills – the Paytm #INDvAUS ODIs will be a test of all that and more!

Australia has a great start in ongoing India tour
The host side India lost both the T20Is of the series against Australia. Australia won the thrilling first T20I at Visakhapatnam by three wickets after finishing that on the final ball of the match. Meanwhile, the visiting side won the second or last T20I of the series at Bengaluru by seven wickets (with two balls remaining). Since 2009, it was the first time when Australia won any international series in India.
Now, they are set to play the five-match ODI series. On Saturday (2 March), India and Australia will meet in the first ODI of the series at Hyderabad. Though India recently lost the T20I series, they are still the favourite side for the upcoming home ODI series. However, Australia is also ready to get back their pride in international cricket through better performances.
