Virender Sehwag Picks First 5 Players of his Dream ODI XI

Virender Sehwag

Virender Sehwag has always been vocal on the topics related to Cricket after his retirement. He has been one of the best batteries for India till now. Sehwag went on to score over 8,000 runs in both ODI and Test cricket. Now he has released the top five players of his dream ODI XI. It will be interesting to see if this team includes players from the Golden Era or not. There is no doubt that Sehwag is definitely one of the best individuals to make a dream team. That is because he himself played 251 ODI matches, and scored 8273, with 15 centuries. This shows the amount of experience he has to make the correct selection.

5 Players from Virender Sehwag’s dream ODI XI

Till now Sehwag has only revealed 5 players from his dream ODI XI. This list might look a bit surprising to you because some of the big names of Indian batters are not there. However, till now only five names have been announced by the legend. We would need to wait for the other names. 

Rohit Sharma 

Rohit Sharma was definitely an easy pick. He is soon going to complete his 10,000 runs, and at the same time, he has also 5 centuries in the last ODI world, which is a record.

Virat Kohli

King Kohli is regarded as arguably the greatest ODI batter of all time. He has scored more than 12,000 runs in ODI, and it is clear that there are many more thousand runs yet to come on his way. 

David Warner 

Sehwag has always been impressed by the talent of David. Even when Warner just started his Test career, Sehwag was confident that he would be a great Test cricketer. 

Glenn Phillips 

Glenn Phillips has till now played only 16 ODI matches, and he has scored only 300+ runs for his nation. However, it is clear that Sehwag must have seen something in him. That is the reason he has been selected for this team. 

The rest of the players are yet to be finalised by the Indian Legend. It is clear that he is not only picking the legends in his dream 11 but also picking up the young talents.
