10 famous Indian cricketers and schools they played for

#8 Virender Sehwag - Government Boys Senior Secondary School (Vikaspuri), Delhi

It was under the watchful eyes of the coach Amar Nath Sharma when Sehwag’s potential was first recognised at the G-Block Government Boys Senior Secondary School in Vikaspuri. The coach was immediately impressed by his aggressive attitude and fearless strokeplay.

The coach not only helped him refine his batting technique but also played a pivotal role in taking him to the international stage.

The 38-year-old was known to be one of the most attacking batsmen in international cricket. He also became the first batsman to score a triple-century in Test Cricket for India at a healthy strike-rate.
