If people call Viv Richards Master Blaster, Sachin Tendulkar Master then Virendra Sehwag is the Blaster.
He opens for India in One-day Internationals for the past 1 year and has changed the game forever.
He is at his best in the first 15 overs and can hammer the best bowler in the world.Even his spin bowling is more than useful and has bagged crucial wickets at regular intervals.
Another great asset to the Indian team is his fielding.He is not a specialist at any position and therefore can field at any position at a given time.
Viru, as he is called by his team mates has started making test cricket appear his own.
Earlier test cricket was supposed to be boring 1st hours play but with Viru batting there is plenty of entertainment as he hits lots of balls to the fence for boundaries and it helps him to score quickly and his team also.
He tends to open the innings and now with Sanjay Bangar both are doing pretty well and it seems that the opening problem is solved.
On his day Viru can win a match on his own and I wish that this happens more times than one.
Be it Indias Tour of Egland (Natwest Trophy) One-day internationals or ICC Champions trophy or the recent matches against the West Indies Viru has shown that he is the star of future generation of Indian Cricket
Wishing Viru all the best
