Former Team India opener Virender Sehwag, who is widely renowned as the 'Nawab of Najafgarh', celebrates his 42nd birthday on Tuesday (October 20). India clinched the inaugural World T20 in South Africa before lifting the World Cup in 2011 on home turf. In the Indian Premier League (IPL), the all-rounder scored 2,728 runs from 104 games he played for the Delhi Daredevils and Kings XI Punjab. 'Viru's 278-ball 319-run knock against South Africa in Chennai in 2008 is also the fastest triple ton scored in Test cricket. After putting his bat down, Sehwag keeps his fans entertained on social media throughout the year.
