RE:amazing batting display- sehwag

I dont think it quite works that way.

Each of our great batsmen have there own means of tackling bowlers.

Like Dravid likes to play and resolve the mystery of the bowling by standing opposed to each bowl even if doesnt have to score runs. Only after he solves it he then hits it.

Sehwag on the other hand goes at them. Makes the bowler think that they are the one who have to solve him and get him. But there is a down side to it.

Each of the approach has its own fall backs but its backed by the perticular player implementing it and he has the expierence and confidence in the approach as he has been using it time and again and has come up tops at different times.

It is in fact the strength of Indian team to have players of different approach. SOme body will cling along to a certain set of questions while other might not.

And also to answer you about those double-figures-atleast question. Once these guys get into dbl figures they become almost unstoppable. Infact if they dont then I get doubts about them in the test arena. That is why laxman getting out at 39 makes less sense to me then dravid getting out at 2. It means laxman has sorted the bowler out but some how lost concentration or some to fall. And again it is hard to concentrate with a freak bowler like mendis he is almost first of his kind.

So i say each of our batsmen is working on his approach and they should be allowed to as they are all proven. Yes Sehwag is the first one with results so thats g
