When in India if you come across a word sounding like Cricket, the name that strikes the mind at the very outset is Sachin Tendulkar, indeed the God of cricket. But who's next to the God- yes you're right , it's Virendra Sehwag. Recently this next to God personality has decided to retire from international cricket. But, no doubt, there will never be another Virendra Sehwag. Here are the 5 reasons why -
