Comment: Virender Sehwag is out of the T20 World Cup. The shoulder
injury doesn't seem to be getting any better. He is leaving.
And that's a big blow to the Indian side.India needs Sehwag
more than it wants to admit. Especially when we face
world-class bowlers, such as Sri Lanka's M3 (Malinga,
Mendis, Murali). Keep in mind that Sehwag has succeeded
against the best on any wicket in the world. In Sri Lanka
last year, when the Fab Four were bamboozled by Mendis,
Sehwag showed the way.
