 BOTH SEHWAG AN GAUTHI BEST PENING PARTNERSHIP

If someone talks about Cricket and Friendships, one must be thinking about the mighty Sehwag and the eccentric Gambhir and their friendship. The duo has been playing together for a decade now, not only for Indian National team but for Delhi as well. They share quite a chemistry as everyone is aware of. Noone can ever forget the opening partnerships involving the two, which is considered to be one of the biggest strength for the Team.

VIRENDER SEHWAG

Virender Sehwag  pronunciation (born 20 October 1978) is an Indian cricketer. An aggressive right-handed opening batsman and a part-time right-arm off-spin bowler, he played his first One Day International in 1999 and joined the Indian Test team in 2001. In April 2009, Sehwag became the only Indian to be honoured as the Wisden Leading Cricketer in the World for his performance in 2008 

Vettori said Sehwag, who struck a 36-ball 54 in the abandoned second one-dayer on Friday, forced him to deviate from his plans.
"He is a great player and with great players the best laid plans can go away. That is what destructive batsmen do. They have people off their game plans," Vettori said after the match.
"I wouldn't say bowlers feel intimidated, but they are fearful of what is going to come. We are never sure what he is going to do, he is that good a player that he can hit all around the park. I suppose the bowlers run in and maybe for a second or two guess what is going to happen," he added.
Vettori said the Kiwi bowlers have to concentrate on bowling in the right areas and stop worrying about getting hit by the right-hander.
"I reckon we have got to tell ourselves that we have got to bowl in our area, and if we get hit from there we can live with that," he said.
Vettori said New Zealand could rein in West Indian swashbuckler Chris Gayle for once, but Sehwag was turning out to be a different kind of nemesis altogether.
"I suppose with Gayle we have got a feel of where he is going to hit and have more opportunities to block him out. But he has played exceptionally well," he said.
"Sehwag has got so many quality players around him, that it gives him the licence to play the way he plays. We have seen him hit the ball to a lot of areas," he added.

if he does not want to play for Notts he can 

off.' I have not spoken to Gallian since, nor have I received an apology
