Cricket Viral Video: Virender Sehwag is one of the most feared opening batsmen in the world. No one can bat the way he used to bat. His aggressive batting approach and ability to score big runs is something many players want to achieve.
He proved many experts wrong, as almost everyone thought a player like him could never succeed. He is still the only Indian batsman to score two triple-hundreds in the test format.
Besides batting, he was also good at influencing people around him. And he takes pride in the fact that he was able to influence many match officials that used to officiate the match. One such incident will blow your mind.
Clear Edge
In an interview, Virender Sehwag revealed that Asad Rauf was a big fan of expensive things. And he persuaded the umpire with some branded shoes, glasses, and t-shirts and convinced him not to give him out.
During the 2008 Mohali test match against Australia, Sehwag cut a sharp short-pitch delivery of Mitchell Johnson. But he completely missed the ball and nicked it hard. And it was a huge edge.
In the opener’s words, The edge was so loud that even the dressing room could hear it. But Ex-Pakistan umpire Asad Rauf gave him a not-out. And the decision sent Australia’s skipper Ricky Ponting in a flurry.
Cricket Viral Video: When Sehwag Trolled Ponting
Ricky Ponting went to Rauf and argued over the decision. When the umpire denied him, the Australian skipper came to Sehwag and asked him, ‘Did you nick it?’ And Viru hilariously replied with a Yes.
Affirming the answer, Ponting went to the umpire and said that even Viru said he nicked it. Both of them came to Sehwag and asked the question again, and Sehwag denied the edge and said he did not nick it.
An argument between Sehwag and Ponting took place. The Delhi boy stated, “Mr. Ponting, you never walked and expected somebody else to walk. I told him that the umpire has a job; let him do his job, and you do yours, and I’ll do mine.”
