He had also taken a dig on Shoaib Akhtar recently when the latter posted picture of the Pakistan team from the 90’s. Nonetheless, Sehwag left no stone un-turned to troll Akhtar as well saying “Very good team Shoaib Bhai, many legends ,but still couldn’t beat India in any World Cup.Still searching for Mauka.”

He has been making headlines right with his commentary stint off late right since ICC World Cup 2016. “Hathi ki size ko, boss ki wife ko aur Nehra ji ki advice ko saara desh salaam karta,” he said during the ICC World T20 2016. In fact, Indians preferred Hindi commentary over English, simply to enjoy Sehwag’s choice of words. “I made fellow cricketers laugh on the field in my playing days. Likewise, I thought I can amuse people with my commentary as well,” Sehwag said on his new role as a commentator few weeks ago in 92.7 Big FM’s promotional video.
