Former India cricketer Virender Sehwag turned 45 on Friday. Wishes started pouring in from all corners for the ex-India opener and among the most special ones was the wish from his former batting partner and cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar. He wished Sehwag to have a boring birthday. Tendulkar expressed the rationale behind it by saying that Sehwag does exactly opposite to what he asks him to do. "When I once told him to go slow and stay on the crease, he said, 'ok' and then smashed the very next ball for four. Happy birthday to the man who likes to do exactly the opposite of what I say. So, I am going to say, please have a boring birthday, Viru," wrote Tendulkar on X, formerly Twitter.
