Top 5 game-changing knocks by Sehwag

#4 293 vs Sri Lanka (2009)

Sehwag missed his third triple century by just seven runs

This masterclass of a batting display will forever be etched in the minds of Indian cricket fans. Sri Lanka posted a competitive 393 in the first innings, and Sehwag came out firing on all guns to blast 284 runs; this is still the most runs scored by an Indian in a single day in a Test match! Although he fell for 293 to the wily Murali, his power performance had the opponents succumb to an innings defeat.

India became No. 1 in Test rankings after that series.
