All-time combined India-England ODI XI

#2 Virender Sehwag (Opener)

Virender Sehwag had the ability to change the complexion of a game

To open the batting with Sachin, we couldn't have picked anyone better than his partner in crime - Virender Sehwag. The dynamic duo opened the innings for India on 93 occasions, and finished with a total of 3919 runs including 12-century stands and were one of the most prolific opening partnerships of the modern era.

Although more renowned for his exploits in the longest format of the game, Sehwag on his day had the ability to take the game away from the opposition. He was instrumental in providing India with some blazing starts over the course of his career.

Runs: 8273, Average: 35.05, SR: 104.33
