After his heroics in the Cricket All-Stars in 2015, Sehwag did not disappoint his fans here as well. Viru cut the first ball he faced over point for a boundary off the bowling of Shoaib Akhtar. He went on smash 62 runs off just 32 balls at a strike-rate of 200. The maverick opener clobbered 5 sixes and 4 fours, before getting out to Akhtar.
Sehwag's captaincy counterpart Shahid Afridi was also expected to return the favour in kind. However, 'Boom Boom' Afridi failed to showcase fireworks as he was dismissed for a duck in his second delivery that he faced off Ramesh Powar. He was caught by Mohammad Kaif, who reminded us of his heydays when he pulled off an excellent catch on the boundary.
