An explosive batsman and a complete entertainer are what describe Virender Sehwag best! He made a sparkling Test debut against South Africa, scoring a flawless 105. He was initially compared to his idol Sachin Tendulkar for his physical stature, style and aggressiveness. However what distinguishes him from Tendulkar is his boldness and complete confidence in playing the big shots. This fact was further ascertained when he hit a six to reach 300 - his and India's first.

Sehwag has played 45 Tests and 151 ODIs for India. Apart from being a superb batsman, he is also a very useful bowler and bowls in almost every match. He is known for his good fielding as well. Though a master of both forms of the game, Sehwag has performed better in Tests. He has an average of 52 with 12 hundreds and 12 half centuries. He is a dangerous cricketer and can be as devastating with the bat as he can with the ball on his given day. He has taken over 80 international wickets proving that he is not just an ordinary back-up bowler. Virender Sehwag captained India in one Test against Sri Lanka in 2003 and emerged victorious. livescore.warofcricket.com provides the profile of Virender Sehwag and other cricketers around the world.
