In fact, match was quickly even once we lost the momentum by losing wickets. Ankit_sharma03 1 Link to comment

Ankit_sharma03 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 He was an underachiever in ODI cricket, surely played some terrific knocks even a few in tough conditions. He mostly threw it away... In odi cricket 25 ball 35 is not enough most days , once u get a start u need to make opposition pay. Link to comment

He was the sole reason Pakistani started fear us remember 2004 series. Teams like Pak usually fear such high strike batsmen .... Sehwag gave Ind a psychological leg up. Best example is the 2005 Test at B'lore where after Sehwag's wicket, Pakistan looked a different team: Scorecard raki05 1 Link to comment
