Former India cricketer Virender Sehwag slammed a 35-ball 80* for India Legends in the opening game of Road Safety World Series 2021. The innings came against Bangladesh Legends to chase down a target of 110 runs in just 10.1 overs.

Sehwag, who came out to open with Sachin Tendulkar, smashed ten fours and five sixes while batting at a strike-rate of 228.57. His batting partner Sachin added an unbeaten 33 from 26 balls in the total.

Yuvraj Singh, who's also part of the India Legends, shared a picture with Sehwag on Instagram. He called the man of the moment a lion in the post.

Yuvraj may not have got to bat against Bangladesh Legends, but he bowled three overs and picked up 2 wickets. He dismissed opener Nazimuddin on 49 and Hannan Sarkar for just 3 runs. The 39-year-old was also involved in the run-out of Abdur Razzak with Naman Ojha.
