Not Rahul Dravid Or Sourav Ganguly! Virender Sehwag Picks Pakistan Great As Best Middle-Order Batter

Legendary Indian cricket team opener Virender Sehwag picked Pakistan's Inzamam-ul-Haq as the best ever middle-order batsman of Asia.

The ones in between—whether the batter is from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, or Bangladesh—among them, I have not seen anyone better than him. At that time, in 2003 and 2004, at 8 runs per over, he used to say, ‘Don't worry. We'll score them easily.' I mean, with 80 runs in 10 overs, any other team would panic. Any other
