8 funny tweets by Virender Sehwag which prove he is living the 'thug life'

7. On Saina Nehwal's Australian Open win

Sehwag has often showered praises on Indian achievers

Virender Sehwag may be a cricketer by trade but he never fails to show his enthusiasm for other sports as well. So whether it is an achievement in athletics, tennis or badminton, the Delhi lad is always quick to appreciate it, especially if there is an Indian involved.

When India's top women's badminton player, Saina Nehwal, won the Australian Open championship last month, she received accolades from all quarters. Sehwag's way of appreciating her, though, was perhaps the most unique.

He came up with a tweet which said, "@NSaina May more success keep kissing your feet ,the way you keep kissing these Trophies" and included a picture of Nehwal kissing the trophy after her latest triumph.
