Virender Sehwag VS Sanath Jayasuriya

[girishk14]

the SRT - Sanath battle has been won hands on by SRT in all forms of the game by a large margin. In tests, therez no need to even discuss this. But in ODIs, who has been a better player? Sehwag or Sanath? Both are explosive openers, who bowl spin, and great fielders. I wanted to know the opinions - please discuss.

Too early to compare, so far Sanath by a distance.

In ODIs it is Jayasurya handsdown... At his peak he was a scary sight as an opening batsman. His bowling has won matches quite a few times. An excellent fielder in any position. Jayasurya can do anything Sehwag can do in ODIs..even better..

Well OP himself said ,no need to compare them in tests,Sehwag wins it hands down Similarly no need to compare them in ODIS as well,Jayasuriya wins it hands down

Sanath was ahead IMO because he contributed with the ball too. Else both are very inconsistent with the bat in ODIs.

Sanath on any given day. Sehwag has picked up his one day efforts recently while Jaya used to ass rape bowlers since time immerorial.

Sehwag in Test odi 50/50 both are quality player

[Raghav_12]

Sanath ahead by some margin in ODI's and Sehwag in test match by good enough margin

[vvvslaxman]

Sanath gave nightmares to INdia in ODIs numerous times. Viru did the same to SL in Tests.

batting alone... sehwag is far more dangerous. Only thing jaya has an edge over sehwag is bowling. That being said, i think sehwag is MUCH better spinner if used often. Sehwag is just too good.
