Former Indian skipper MS Dhoni called it a day on his international captaincy career on January 4 and while everyone was surprised and wished him after his sudden decision. He took a bold step and left the responsibility for someone who can take his legacy forward.

While everyone wished MS Dhoni we are all waiting for Sehwag tweet. Since he his famous for his way of doing things All the cricket lovers are expecting something from Sehwag after MS Dhoni quitting the captaincy. Today in an exclusive write-up for Cricket Talkies, Viru finally responded on the issue.

Viru said it came earlier than he expected and he certainly thought Dhoni would retire on the 7th given his love for the number.

“Mahendra Singh Dhoni resigned as captain of Indian One Day and T20I team on 4th January. This has happened a few days earlier than I expected. 7 is his favorite number and I thought it was apt to wish him the very best going forward as a wicket-keeper batsman on the 7th.” Sehwag said.

“His skills on the field as a player and captain are known to everyone, but he is an even better human being with a big big heart. It’s also fitting that he and the team played with names of their mother on the India jersey in the last match he captained for India. I wish him all the best in everything that he does,” Sehwag concluded.

Viru praised Dhoni as not just a cricketer but as a human being as well and mentioned that he has a huge heart. Viru also reminded out that the last match Dhoni played as skipper he was wearing his mother’s name on his back and that certainly is a pretty good observation.
