'If I hit a six, I will hit you with the bat', when Sachin lost his temper in the middle of the field

Virender Sehwag had told in an exclusive interview given to News 18 India a year ago that how once Sachin (Sachin Tendulkar) had threatened to hit him with the bat. Recalling the Multan Test match, Sehwag said, 'When he (Tendulkar) came to the crease after Rahul Dravid was out. I was playing after scoring 120 runs at that time. As soon as he arrived, I sent Saqlain Mushtaq's ball over long-on for a six outside the boundary. The fielder tried to catch it but failed. The master came to me with a bat and said that if you hit a six now, I will pull the bat and hit you. When I reached the score of 295, I said that if Saqlain comes to bowl now, I will get him out and hit a six on the very first ball.

9 years younger in age, got married after religious conversion, who is that Kangaroo cricketer who has Pakistani blood in his veins?

Who is that 22 year old boy? Who got a place in Team India for the first time, throws the ball at a speed of 156.7 KM/H!

'Are you nuts?'
Sachin Tendulkar asked Virender Sehwag, are you crazy? You will become the first Indian to score 300 runs. I said that till date no Indian has even made a score of 295. I am the first Indian. He called me crazy and went away. Then when Saqlain was brought into the attack, I went ahead and hit a six and completed my triple century. After this, I saw more happiness on Sachin's face than on my own.

Sachin was haunted by the fear of Australia
Thanks to this inning of Sehwag, India declared the first innings at 675 runs for 5 wickets. After this the Indian team won the Multan Test by an innings and 52 runs. This innings of Sehwag was recorded in the golden pages of history. This innings is known for its aggression and fearlessness. At that time, Pakistan's bowling attack included dangerous bowlers like Shoaib Akhtar, Mohammed Shami and Saqlain Mushtaq. Sehwag said that before the Multan Test, we had gone on Australia tour in 2003. Then I hit some sixes off Simon Katich and reached 195 runs. To reach 200, I tried to hit him for another six and I was out. We lost that test. Viru said that Sachin was afraid that just like he got out while trying to hit a six in Australia, he might get out here too. Because he said that because of you we had lost there.
