India’s skipper, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/West-Indies-c760 in the 4th ODI on December 8.
At Holkar Cricket Stadium, Indore, Veru set a new world record by lashing a 219-run knock with the help of 25 fantastic fours and 7 classic sixes. With this achievement, the Delhi-born batter surpassed his teammate and legend of all times, Sachin Tendulkar,
who had the 200 ODI runs record.
Sehwag’s double ton architected an excellent series victory for Team http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750. He was also working as stand-in skipper in the 5-game home event.
With everybody extolling Sehwag, Dhoni has also paid tribute to Nawab of Najafgarh’s batting brilliancy, claiming that the hard hitter plays calculative innings and uses the fast bowlers’ pace against them.
Talking to the media today, Mahi said, “I had always believed that on his day, Sehwag has the ability to score 200 because, apart from the big shots, he also uses the bowlers' pace against them and plays calculative innings. It was a pleasure to watch him
batting. Given his talent, he can do it again. So, hopefully, it will be done by him again.”
On the other hand, Sehwag claims that he has availed the opportunity which comes just once in a batsman’s life. He has not reiterated to recur the big show in his remaining career. However, he is euphoric to have achieved this feat.
The 33-year-old right-handed batsman has 92 Test, 240 ODI and 14 T20I games to his credit. His batting average in 5-day format has been 52.15. Interesting to note is the fact that Sehwag’s highest score in all versions of the game, both domestic and international
except T20I, ends with the figure of 19.
Like all other cricket experts and analysts, Dhoni too hopes that Sehwag’s outstanding momentum will lend a great hand to him when the Men in Blue take on the Aussies in the 4-Test high-stakes series, starting from December 26 at Melbourne Cricket Ground,
