Hydos and gilly opening pair is still my favorite... Gauti and viru opening pair is next in the line... Individually comparing I think both are equal

Sehwag has still got a good 5-6 years of cricket to play and by the time he is done he would end up with perhaps the most awesome record for an int'l opener ever. The three areas he needs to improve upon are: a) His record away from subcontinent ( in NZ, SA and Eng) b) His record in the 4th innings of a test match c) His ODI record Off late he has been improving on all these stats and will only keep getting better.

Hayden is more ruthless, at your face Sehwag is more talented and devastating Both are amongst the best openers the world has seen

It's a tough one.. two of my favourite players though.. I guess in Hayden's favour is bulk of runs. He scored over 100 for 5 years straight and spent a decent length of his career averaging over 55. I don't like to admit it but I think Sehwag will probably end up with more runs and hundreds. It's a very close one, but if Sehwag was Australian I would probably lean towards him :)

It doesn't really matter, does it? Hayden was a great batsman. He proved that when he played in India too. I think this thread is pointless.

[The Dark Horse]

Even though he is aggressive, Sehwag's batting is easy on the eye. Whereas, Hayden is more brutal and in your face.:P

[Andy]

I thnk both are same...if u consider their stats!! Here is for Sehwag http://stats.cricinfo.com/ci/engine/player/35263.html?class=1;template=results;type=allround Here is for Hayden http://stats.cricinfo.com/ci/engine/player/5616.html?class=1;template=results;type=allround

^ its the strike rate that seperates them,Andy.Sehwag averages 52 at average of 80.also his away average is better than Hayden

[gult]

Sehwag is a decent part time bowler ;)

[vvvslaxman]

Another comparison!! How many times we have to tell. There is only one sehwag. There will be only one. I don't think even India can produce another sehwag. He is one of a kind. "My mind was blank" - When Shastri asked his cliched question "What went through your mind. He is such an innocent legend !!! (One day Sehwag should say.. "I was thinking about aloo paratha when i went to the crease" just to piss off Ravi)
