Allow me to brush up your memory. Back in 2007, Virender Sehwag was all set to take over as the captain of Indian Cricket Team. But then he struck a bad patch at the wrong time and lost his place in the team. It was just around this time that Dhoni was rising in stature and he soon took over as the captain of the side.

Dhoni won World T20 in the same year. He had his own demands and was trying to bring younger players to the side at the expense of senior men who were slow on the field. Soon the split between Sehwag and Dhoni spread like fire and it consistently made the headlines of the sports column. it was widely rumoured that Sehwag lost his place because of Dhoni and that Dhoni had benched Sehwag for many matches.
Yesterday, Sehwag wished M.S Dhoni on his 37th birthday and a fan found the time convenient to remind him of the old issues. Look at what be tweeted.
He termed MSD as the finisher of Sehwags career. But then check out how India’s former opener responded.
Well, that’s Virender sehwag for you. Calm and mature, very unlike his batting style.
