Sehwag was the first Delhi player to represent India in 100 Test matches. He had a fantastic career in Test cricket as an opening batter and became the first Indian to hit a triple century in Tests. He is one of only four batters who has hit two triple centuries in Test cricket and shares the great record with legends like Don Bradman, Brian Lara and Chris Gayle.
Sehwag was an integral part of the Indian Test team in the first decade of the 2000s and his batting at the top of the order laid the foundation for several memorable Indian wins.
Sehwag and Kohli were teammates when India won the 2011 ICC World Cup.
