Virendra Sehwag once again proved that he is the man you should not mess with! Irrespective of the side one was supporting, it was hard not to enjoy that innings from Virendra Sehwag. With eight 6’s and twelve 4’s, Viru nullified the CSK attack. Virendra Sehwag made the ball go in ample of directions some high up in the sky in the Wankhede stadium enthralling the Wankhede crowds on his way to whirlwind knock of 122 off just 58 balls.
The interesting part of the innings was the way Virendra Sehwag carried it out with so much beauty and perfection. Apart from Ishwar Pandey every CSK bowler was put to frustration by the KXIP opener. This time it was noticed that Sehwags approach was measured and he hardly gave the opposition any chance to get him out. Virendra was seen way to calm this time and continued pulverizing all the men in yellow who bowled at him.
Before the start of the match everyone were expecting that Glenn Maxwell might show some awesome innings but hard-luck for Glenn he was not able to utilize his full potential this time. So today people were expecting about Maxwell but it turned out to be Sehwag doing wonders and I guess everyone in the stadium along with CSK fans mast have also enjoyed his innings.
Finally the entertainment of the night came to an end when Ashish Nehra dismissed Viru. After then the most awaited moment arrived when Sehwag spoke to the presenter after completion of the innings. He said: Whenever I went there to bat, and got out early, I used to get calls from my wife that my son’s friends tease him about his father not scoring runs. But this time I told him “Hold on beta, there is still time” last couple of games I wanted to focus on my batting and I had to win at least one game for KXIP.
Thus by showing such fantastic and outstanding performance makes Viru one of the most loved cricketers of all time!
