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

5. On Kevin Pietersen's birthday

Sehwag’s association with Pietersen dates back to the latter’s Delhi Daredevils days

Virender Sehwag seldom misses out on wishing his fellow cricketers and other sports personalities on their birthdays. The iconic opener ensures on most occasions that he provides a touch of humour, especially when he is wishing cricketers he has played with.

Kevin Pietersen was one of Sehwag's team-mates during his time at Delhi Daredevils. So when his birthday came around this year, the ace Indian batsman wished him by revealing what he thought about the Englishman in those days.

"A very happy birthday @KP24. When we used to play for Delhi,I always thought, This KP will send the ball to CP," wrote Sehwag. By CP, the 2-time triple centurion was referring to the Connaught Place area in Delhi, a fact clarified by one of the fans responding to the tweet.
