A Sehwag classic

This article by Samir Chopra is about his test debut.

I myself have watched his debut innings video on youtube many times. Its a stunning innings from a test debutant coming in at 68-4 in South Africa. I remember Geoffrey Boycott's inimitable praise "Tell you what! This lad can play.I like the look of him. This lad can play". Well, Geoffrey might not always  agree with what Viru does but nobody can say he hasn't been a successful batsman in Indian cricket. Very soon, (if not already) he shall enter the pantheon of Indian batting greats! All we need is more match winning knocks like the one against England!
