Virat Kohli: Virender Sehwag was considered one of the most aggressive batsmen of his time. He used to open the account by hitting fours in almost all the innings. Any bowler used to face difficulties in bowling in front of him. It was Virender Sehwag who started the stormy batting in Test matches as well. Sehwag also bowled in several innings. He used to bowl off-spin. Even while bowling, Sehwag has given success to the team many times. Sehwag narrated an anecdote when he could not achieve a milestone in bowling because of Virat Kohli.
Kohli missed the catch off Sehwag
Sehwag was telling old things in a podcast. During this, he told that Virat Kohli had dropped an easy catch on his ball. Had Kohli taken that catch, Sehwag would have got a T20 wicket. Sehwag failed to pick up a single T20 wicket in his career. Had Virat Kohli taken that catch, Sehwag would have got a T20 International wicket.
Sehwag did not expect from Kohli
Virender Sehwag also praised Virat Kohli fiercely. He also said that he had no idea that Kohli could become such a big batsman in future. Sehwag said that he never doubted Virat’s talent but at the same time he also never felt that Kohli would become one of the greatest batsmen of the century. Sehwag never thought that Kohli would make his stature so big in international cricket that he would be compared to Sachin Tendulkar, who is called the God of cricket.
