Former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag gave a hilarious reply to Shoaib Akhtar’s statement of “I have more notes than the amount of hair strands Virender Sehwag has on his head.” Virender Sehwag said that now his hair strands are more than Akhtar’s notes.
Virender Sehwag has been one of the fiercest batters that have represented India. He was known for his aggressive batting as he only had one motive and that was to dominate the bowling lineup of the opposition in all three formats. He achieved various milestones in his career and is still rated very highly.

On the other hand, Shoaib Akhtar is one of the most dangerous bowlers that have been there in the sport. He was lethal with the ball as he had a reputation for being unplayable and the fasted bowler in the world. He won many matches for Pakistan and was always in the headlines.
Both Virender Sehwag and Shoaib Akhtar have engaged in various on-field battles. The competition between them was one of the main highlights of India vs Pakistan game back then. While they entertained many with their cricket, they also share a great camaraderie off the field as they used to be together and often indulged in hilarious banter too.

Virender Sehwag opened up about his friendship with Shoaib Akhtar. He said that they pull each other’s leg. He also gave a reply to his statement hilariously. Speaking on Breakfast With Champions, he said:
“Where there is love, there is banter or where there is friendship. With Shoaib Akhtar, I have a deep friendship since 2003-04. We have gone there twice, they have come twice. There’s friendship and we pull each other’s leg too.
“He made a statement. I have more notes than the amount of hair strands Virender Sehwag has on his head. Now My hair strands are more than your notes. That tagline would be cool for ‘Breakfast With Champions’.”
“Why will you go and have a word with him?” Virender Sehwag Lashes Out At Hardik Pandya for having chat with Mohit Sharma in the last over of the IPL Final
The IPL Final between Chennai Super Kings and Gujarat Titans kept everyone on their toes. The game went down the wire but in the end, it was the MS Dhoni-led side who held their nerves better and won the game.
The main highlight of the game was during the last over when CSK needed 13 runs to chase the target in the final over. Mohit Sharma was given the responsibility to defend the target and he did to some extent.
Mohit Sharma bowled brilliant four balls as he executed his yorkers and conceded just 3 runs. After that skipper Hardik Pandya had a chat with him and when 10 runs were needed off the last two balls, Ravindra Jadeja smashed six on the first ball and then guided the ball to four to win the game for his side.
Virender Sehwag slammed Hardik for having a chat with Mohit Sharma in the last over of the IPL Final. He said that the talk was justified when the bowler would’ve gone for runs in the first four balls. He said:
“When some is bowling well and is delivering with yorkers, why will you go and have a word with him? He knows that the batter needs 10 from 2 and that he needs to stick with yorkers. Then why will you waste his time? Had Mohit been hit for runs, then he could have gone and had a word, but when the bowler is doing his job you want to get done with the over quickly.”
With their 5th title win, Chennai Super Kings joined Mumbai Indians as the most successful team in the IPL.
