VIRENDER SEHWAG
ODI CAREER
Sehwag's ODI career started poorly whilst scored 1 against Pakistan in Mohali in April 1999 as he fell lbw to Shoaib Akhtar. His bowling performance have also been ineffective and costly, conceding 35 runs off 3 overs. He failed to get another chance from the national team for twenty five months.[23]

Sehwag has not been given another match until the home series against Zimbabwe[3] in December 2000. Sehwag rose to prominence in their fourth ODI match in March 2001 while he scored 58 off 54 balls, against Australia in Bangalore. Coupled with his three wickets, he help earn India a victory and was awarded his first man of the match award.[24] He followed this with the unproductive tour of Zimbabwe in mid-2001.
Sehwag had his international breakthrough in Sri Lanka in August 2001 when he was promoted to the opening slot for your tri-series also involving New Zealand. The promotion to start the innings came because regular opener Sachin Tendulkar was absent because of foot injury.[25] Inside the match against New Zealand that's to make a decision the finalist, he scored his maiden century from 69 balls.[26] During the time, the century was another fastest ODI century for an Indian behind Mohammad Azharuddin's 62 ball effort and Yuvraj singh's 64 ball effort. This is his first score beyond 50 in ten matches and saw him named man in the match. This performance earned him a normal spot from the ODI squad in the center-order. He bettered his own record by hitting a 60-ball century against New Zealand throughout the 2009 tour. An innings of note in 2002 was the 22 ball half-century against Kenya in Bloemfontein, tying the 2nd fastest 50 by an Indian. Due to his attacking cricket stroke plays.
