NEW DELHI: Virender Sehwag is well-known for his witty remarks and humorous takes on various topics. His humour often shines through on social media, where he engages with fans and followers with light-hearted banter.
Sehwag's commentary, whether on cricket or everyday observations, is filled with laughter and puns. He has a knack for making people smile with his straightforward and playful language.
The former India opener Sehwag once again hogged the limelight for his blunt remarks during the Club Prairie Podcast along with former Australian wicketkeeper Adam Gilchrist.
"Do you see a time when Indian players will be able to play in other T20 leagues?" Gilchrist asked.
Sehwag's response to the question was both swift and memorable. With a touch of lighthearted overstatement, he remarked, "No, we don't need to. We are rich people, we don't go to poor countries for other leagues."
Sehwag also recounted a moment when he turned down an offer from the Big Bash League due to the offered amount being insufficient.
"I still remember when I was dropped from the Indian team and I was playing IPL.
Then I got an offer from BBL that I should participate in the Big Bash, I said okay how much money, they said $100,000.
"I said I can spend that money in my holidays, even last night's bill was more than that," the 45-year-old jokingly revealed.
