‘I will make Kishore Kumar…’ Sehwag was humming in the middle of the field, from behind…

New Delhi. Whenever the pair of former Indian cricket team opener Virender Sehwag and legendary Sachin Tendulkar used to come on the crease, the entire stadium would echo with slogans in their name. Both the batsmen did not want to let the opposition bowlers dominate them. They kept pressure on him/her from the beginning. Unlike Sachin, Sehwag used to attack the bowlers from the very first ball. Sehwag used to play his/her attacking game while Sachin used to support him/her very well from the other end. Sehwag has shared stories related to his/her cricket career many times during commentary. This includes every moment he/she spent with Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar. Sehwag keeps narrating the moments spent with his/her fellow players, from the dressing room to the field and during the journey including dinner with the team.

Virender Sehwag had told during the commentary in IPL a year ago that how once Sachin Tendulkar had hit him/her with the bat from behind in the middle of the field. Recalling that incident, Sehwag said, ‘In the 2011 World Cup, we were batting in the match against South Africa. I was singing my songs in my own tune while batting. he/she (Sachin Tendulkar) was in very good touch. I think he/she was playing at 25-30 runs in 10-12 balls. he/she is fond of talking between overs. I was not talking to them at that time, I was humming my songs. So that my concentration remains. After this, after four overs, Sachin went and hit me from behind with the bat. And said that if you keep singing like this, I will make you Kishore Kumar. Keep talking.’

‘If I hit a six, I will hit you with the bat’ When Sachin lost his/her temper in the middle of the field, the batsman got angry and then…

‘I was out after scoring 70-80 runs’
Sehwag told that Sachin had said that keep talking about what is happening and what we have to do. Then Veeru said that I told Sachin that you and I are batting so well. Then what is the use of talking? Do your own work. And we were around 45-50 in 5 overs and reached 70-80 runs in 8 overs. And the situation was such that we scored 140-150 runs in just 20 overs. I was out after scoring 70 runs. Veeru said that after the over was over, Sachin wanted to talk about what he/she was doing or how we should play further. And I have nothing to do with it because I just sing this, I move to someone’s tune…’
