New Delhi: One of the key moments of India's 2011 World Cup victory was how skipper MS Dhoni promoted himself ahead of in-form Yuvraj Singh in the World Cup final and scored an unbeaten 91 as hosts lifted the trophy after 28 years. 
 

That move was seen as a masterstroke and now former India opener Virender Sehwag has revealed that it was Sachin Tendulkar's idea to change the batting order.

During a conversation between the openers in the dressing room, Dhoni entered and Sachin gave him a tip. “So, finally in between MS Dhoni came in and at that time Virat Kohli and Gautam were batting. So, he told MS, if right-handed batsman gets out, then go for right-hander and left-handed batsman gets out, go for left-hander. After saying this, he went to the bathroom and then back out. And then Virat Kohli got out and in place of him (Yuvraj), MS Dhoni went to bat,” said Sehwag on chat show 'What the Duck'.

i did not understand this part. Why sehwag thought it was important to mention sachin's loo breaks? Is this a murder mystery to tell all the details?? Or is he saying that Sachin cannot be there when the decision was being executed??

Can't say anything that comes out of Sehwag's mouth is the absolute truth. Remember the baap comment to Akhtar was denied by Akhtar. He probably uses his "artistic license" here that he uses in hindi commentary. He even mentions it in a previous show on WTD. As someone mentioned it here, if Dhoni failed and lost the world cup, this comment would not be made. Sehwag is a known bhakt of Sachin.

 

When Sehwag and Zaheer were dropped for a match in the 2012 T20 WC, they were in the dugout and when we won a match, the camera was one these two. Zaheer was his usual self while Sehwag celebrated too much and even Zaheer was laughing like what this guy is doing. Supposedly Sehwag was showing how he "works for the team". I can cite several examples but this guy is a horrible commentator and he is pandering to the populace in order to keep his reputation high.

Why would Akhtar ever agree to the baap comment?

Ailiaaaa trying to steal Gary's credits.. Where was his suggestions in 2003 and 2007 WC ? If he was that good he wouldn't be kicked out of captaincy not once but twice :giggle:

But he suggested Dhoni for the captaincy in 2007 as he saw potential in him.He played with injuries during the 2003 WC and in 2007 he was forced to bat at number 4 :((.

It was not the baap comment he said that Sachin hit Akhtar for a six in that Multan test match where he made 194 when he never hit any six in that game but he was very upset with Rahul Dravid when he declared the innings and he could not complete his 200 he mentioned that in his book as well.

This is getting stupid now. Do you honestly believe that order made any difference. The better team won. No more no less. As they say success has many fathers and defeat is an orphan. How come there is no help when Sachin himself was playing stupid against Australia in SA for finals. I am tired of this hero worship and bullsheet.
