Sehwag about Mahendra Bahubali

London June 09: Virender Sehwag has praised Mahendra Singh Dhoni ahead of ICC Champions trophy during the match between India and Sri Lanka here on Thursday.

Usually, Sehwag never spared any bowler during his playing days, hammering them all over the park with his hard-hitting batting style.

Sehwag on Thursday, while doing TV commentary, compared Mahendra Singh Dhoni with Mahendra Bahubali, a character played by actor Prabhas in the film Bahubali.

Sehwag made this comparison during Dhoni's whirlwind knock of 63 off 52 balls in an ICC Champions Trophy 2017 match between India and Sri Lanka at the Kennington Oval.

The wicketkeeper-batsman used all his experience, hitting seven fours and two sixes on way to reaching his 62nd ODI half-century.

Just after Sehwag called Dhoni as 'Bahubali', Twitter was flooded with tweets in praise of Dhoni.
