The India batting order looked a different class altogether since the ‘Nawab of N🌺ajafgarh’, Virender Sehwag, made his debut in 2001.
Ho🔜wever, it was his captain Sourav Ganguly who was responsible for the turnaround of his career,🦂 since he pushed him at the top of the order.
Sehwag and Gautam Gambhir, followed by the Fab four, made India one of the most dominant batting ไforc⛦es in world cricket.
Despite his blistering performances in all formats of the game, Sehwag’s technique was scrutinized due to❀ his minimal footwo✤rk.
Sehwag alwaဣys had followed his mantra of seeing the ball and hitting them, owing to his gifted hand-eye-coordination.
Many believed that his technique would only be useful in the sub-continental🃏 condition, and the ‘Sultan of Multan’ would struggle in foreign conditions. But the explosive right-hander answered all his critics by bringing up tons in🅺 all SENA countries.
In a recent tweet, Sehwag finally revealed from where he drew his batting inspiration from, and the answer is surprising. One would expect a Sachin Tendulkar or a Sunil Gavaskar, but alas, its ‘Angad’ from cel♛ebrated Hindu epic, ‘Ramayana’.
“So here♛ is where i took my batting inspiration from 🙂 Pair hilana mushkil hi nahi , namumkin hai . #Angad ji Rocks,” captioned Sehwag’s laꦉtest tweet.
