6 Greatest Test knocks by Indian batsmen in this millennium

#4 Virender Sehwag 309 vs Pakistan

Virender Sehwag changed the dynamics of Test cricket with his batting style

Virender Sehwag known for his aggressive style was a complete entertainer with the bat. It was obvious that he would be a complete package for the limited overs format but many experts believed that he would fail in Test cricket with this approach.

The Nawab of Najafgarh proved everyone wrong, and his 309 against Pakistan in 2004 was a breakthrough performance. He became the first Indian batsman to score a triple century. He annihilated the Pakistan bowling attack with his power hitting which included the likes of Shoaib Ahktar, Mohammad Sami and Abdul Razzak.

Sehwag's 309 included 39 boundaries and six sixes, and it was also one of the fastest triple century scored by him and second to Matthew Hayden in the list.

Sehwag's innings will always be remembered as one of the most destructive innings in the history of Test cricket.
