Former Indian cricketer and Legend Virender Sehwag reveal how their 2011 WorldCup team played for Tendulkar and wanted to give him a great farewell by winning the Cup. “We played that World Cup for Tendulkar and won”, Everybody will look to win the World Cup for Virat Kohli.
Virender Sehwag said:
“We played that World Cup (in 2011) for Tendulkar. If we won the World Cup, it would have been a great exit for Sachin paaji. Virat Kohli is the same now. Everybody will look to win the World Cup for him. He always gives more than 100 per cent,” Sehwag said.
“I think Virat Kohli is also looking to this World Cup. 100,000 people will watch you at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Virat knows how the pitches will behave. I am sure he will score a lot of runs and he will do his best to win the World Cup for India.” he stated
“Everybody wants to look forward to that India-Pakistan game. So even I am,” he said.
“I feel that now India handles the pressure that is why they win whereas Pakistan have a burden that they haven’t won against India. In the 1990s, they were good at dealing with pressure but after 2000, India soak it better. If any player says that they don’t feel pressure, I don’t think it’s right. We used to say it too but at the end of the day, we know it’s an India vs Pakistan game and emotions run high.” He added.
