Sehwag

[Khalil]

I was not following the triangular between Ind, Sri Lanka and the Windies.

Can anyone be so kind as to tell me whether Sehwag scored his double century in this tournament?

[Awesome Anjum]

...and there was Khalil thinking the perennial wait was over.

That's the funniest thing I've heard..Khalil you should be voted as the most idiotic statement of the week.....

That sure looks like sewag scored his double century

[Amjid Javed]

since shewags famous outburst before the asia cup...his record has been -

Mat I NO Runs Ave 100 50 0
26 25 0 644 25.76 1 4 2

pretty ****** poor record to say the least....! still no double ton either...!

[Gasherbrum]

And I would rather have a monkey instead of Sehwag on the team.......

[Gasherbrum]

my team would kick your team's behind in that case.

Who's up for Afridi and Sehwag opening in Asian XI vs African XI matches?

in test cricket shewag can be destructive. in odis hes hit and miss just like afridi. i would even go as far as to say afridi is more consistant than shewag in odis now!

[Somali Pirate]

i want sehwag too but only in tests.Wonder if we will ever get an Anwar type fellow

[googly]

To be fair to him some journalist asked him a dumb question like "whether he would like to score an ODI double hundred" and he said "yeas" which was as always blown out of proportion by the media. Who wouldn't like to score an ODI double hundred!!

[Nauman]

Well Sehwag has also been having a terrible back problem so I heard for a long time now, wether that is hindering his batting performance or not is another question which I dont know but he definately needs to lose some weight if he wants to solve his back problems, though I would still have him in my team there are other players in Indian lineup like Gangully, Dravid and Laxman who are supposed to bat for a long innings so one hit and miss player doesnt really go amiss.

[Farhad]

Well, I haven't watched much of the Indianoil cup, but can confirm one thing from what I've seen of Sehwag when he is bowling. Poor Sehwag is balding....and balding at a pace faster than his batting strike rate.

Farhad,

For your pleasure, Sehwag's batting performance in the Indian Oil Cup, enjoy

I do understand urdu farhad, but thanks for the translation......I can only try not to rub it in too much

[Officer Barbrady]

Very good player!

[mulan]

Khalil...

Why would you think Sehwag scored a double century in an ODI anyhow?

Good player...but his footwork early in his innings makes him prone to get out to false shots more often than not....once he's in of course....different story altogether....

[Matic]

Do you think anybody is capable of hitting a double century in OneDay cricket?

[mulan]

OF COURSE!!!

Saeed Anwar 194 in 1997 remember....
Also:
Jayasuriya 189 in 2000 Vs India
Gary Kirsten 188 not out...

It can be done...

[Matic]

With todays batsmen, who do you think has the biggest chance?

[mulan]

Afridi
Sehwag
Gilchrist
Gayle
(and I'm gonna hate myself for this) Maybe even Kevin Pietersen, Flintoff...depending on when they get in....

Id rather have Jaysuriya and Afridi. As captain/coach id just tell Afridi to play his own game and destroy the opposition. Id tell Jayasuriya to revert back to his 1996 pinch hitting days and launch a 130 from 60 balls type of innings.

Hello Mulan

Sehwag told journalist that he would like to become the first player to score an ODI double hundred. Since then he has battled to even get into double figures in ODI's and I am only making fun of his remarks

[mulan]

Sweet!

I just thought you knew something I didn't...like Sehwag scoring a double in a league ODI or sumpin'...

[Imran_The Man!]

He's a good player , no doubt it especially in tests.

No Khalil - the journalist in question asked Sehwag if he thinks he could be the first one to score a double hundred in a ODI and he said why not ! The story was then reversed into sounding like Sehwag is going around saying that.

Sehwag is one of the nicest cricketers around - have never seen him bad mouthing/sledging etc - he gets down to work which is to score runs for his country without worrying about being a superstar - something a few of our players can learn from.

[Romali_rotti]

Umm Khalil your Mr. still 16 year old Afridi wanted to hit a doble ton too in one dayers BUt Sighhhss hasnt hapened yet (..

[12thMan]

good luck on the double. Hopes are on you

[UP]

Sehwag will hit it you guys just wait and see

[Megadeth]

I think someone who is half-crazy like pietersen,afridi have more of a chance of scoring a double...provided that they open the innings/come in @ one-down....

Sehwag has lost his devastating touch as bowlers seem to have sorted him out..

[McBoom]

well Pietersen is not that crazy/cocky anymore, if Hayden gets one of those minnow teams in his way he can definitely do it.

I think that was coming from Pakistani fans and media who are still hurting over his 309 in Multan.

Sehwag is a captain's nightmare or dream, it depends on his mood, he is far more versatile than Afridi and has had more recognised innings at the top of the order than ol' Afridi could ever dream of.

I for one am a Sehwag fan as when he is on song he is a treat to watch.
