Virender Sehwag began his innings with a boundary as he opened the batting alongside Sachin Tendulkar for India Legends.
During his playing days, Virender Sehwag made his name as one of the most attacking batsmen in modern-day cricket. Sehwag holds the record for slamming a boundary in the first ball of an ODI innings for the most number of times (20), and it didn't change when he made a return to cricket in the Road Safety World Series on Saturday.
Sehwag slammed a boundary on the first ball he faced in the 151-run chase off Pedro Collins. He hit a cover-drive, bending on one knee as he stayed true to his reputation.
