Sehwag continued to make merry on the 1st delivery of the innings after he started the MCL with a six of the first ball. Opening the innings for Gemini Arabians against Libra Legends, Sehwag hit the first ball of the match by Andy McKay for a six. Sehwag was dismissed after he had scored 21 runs of 11 deliveries.

Starting an innings with a six or a boundary is nothing new for Sehwag. He has done it in the past as well and again Twitter was flooded with tweets praising him. We bring some of the gems to you
