Former Indian cricket team opener Virender Sehwag believes that sportspersons should not enter politics as most of them only enter the field for "ego and hunger for power". Taking to X, formerly Twitter, he wrote, "I am not at all interested in politics. Have been approached by both major parties in the last two elections. My view is that most entertainers or sportsman should not enter politics as most are there for their own ego and hunger for power and barely spare genuine time for people; few are exceptions, but generally, most only do PR." "I love being involved with cricket and commentating, and being a part-time MP whenever convenient is not something I ever aspire for." The cricketer was responding to a man who "thought" Sehwag should have been an MP before Gautam Gambhir.
