The blistering Indian opener, Virender Sehwag, is confident of making a comeback into the national team before the start of the England tour, scheduled in July of 2011.
After leaving his Indian Premier League outfit, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Delhi-c780 Daredevils, in the midst of the tournament last week, Sehwag underwent a serious shoulder surgery in London.
The Delhi-born opening batsman, who will not be able to join the national side for the upcoming tour of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/West-Indies-c760, is hopeful to recover and offer his services for the crucial England series.
"I think I will able to play the series in England. That's the reason why I stopped playing the Indian Premier League for Delhi Daredevils and rushed to London to get my shoulder operated," Sehwag said.
The flamboyant batsman was attended by Dr. Andrew Wallace, the same surgeon who operated on the Master Blaster, Sachin Tendulkar, a few years back.
On his recovery, Sehwag, who reached http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 last night, said, "I will return to London after six weeks for a check-up. I should be fit in six to eight weeks. Going by the rehabilitation programme designed for me I should be okay. I am already feeling the
difference each day."
According to the news, Sehwag mostly stayed in the hotel room during his short visit in England and the only time he went outside his hotel was to check into the hospital for an hour long shoulder surgery.
When asked about the recently announced Indian squad for the upcoming series against Windies, the Indian dasher expressed that in the absence of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Gautam-Gambhir-c58623 was the best option to lead the side in the Caribbean tour.
Meanwhile, he made it clear that the young side has all the potential to do well on West Indian pitches.
Sehwag, who is the only Indian to score a triple century in Test cricket, has served his country in 87 Tests in which he scored 7694 runs at an average of 53.43.
In 2007, India won the Test series in England for the first time after 1986, and it can be recalled that Sehwag was not even selected in the 15-member squad at that time.
