Explosive batsman Virender Sehwag, who used to make the opposition bowlers laugh with his stormy batting, was used to stormy batting, but once in his career, there was a talk of dropping this explosive opener from the team. Sourav Ganguly was the captain of Team India in the year 2003. He told Virender Sehwag that if he did not perform, he would drop him from the team.
Big disclosure on Sehwag
Former Indian opener Aakash Chopra once revealed this during the Cric Cast show on YouTube. This incident is from the Test series against New Zealand in 2003. Aakash Chopra said that Sourav Ganguly had told Virender Sehwag that if you want to retain your place in the team, then run.
Threat of ending career
Aakash Chopra said that Virender Sehwag scored a lot of runs in the initial phase of his career, but then bad times came. Sehwag's bat was not scoring runs. After this, Team India captain Sourav Ganguly went to Virender Sehwag and said that if he does not perform, he will drop him from the team. The interesting thing was that after failing in the first Test of this series against New Zealand, Veeru scored a century in the Mohali Test match and scored 130 runs.
Runs from Sehwag's bat after one year
Virender Sehwag was continuously flopping in 9 innings and not even a single half-century came from his bat. Sourav Ganguly had then said that if you want to remain in the team, you have to run.
