'We rich people do not go to play in the league of poor countries…' Veeru's funny answer to the Australian legend – News India Live

IPL 2024: Indian opener Sehwag, once known for his explosive batting, has become extremely popular for his interesting and witty bold comments after his retirement. Will Indian players be seen playing in foreign leagues in the coming days? In response to former Australian wicketkeeper Gilchrist, Sehwag said with sharp sarcasm that, no. We don't need it. We are rich people so we do not need to join the ranks of poor countries.

There was a conversation between Gilchrist and Sehwag in a podcast. Sehwag also mentioned his modest earnings in the Big Bash League. Sehwag said, I was dropped from the Indian team and still played in the IPL.

During this time, he got an offer to play in the Big Bash League. Then he made me an offer of one lakh dollars. 45 year old Sehwag said in a light tone that I told him that I can spend this amount on one of my holidays. Last night's bill itself was more than the bill he had proposed.
