New Delhi, June 17 (Cricketnmore) Former Indian opener Virender Sehwag has denied reports that he sent a two-line curriculum vitae (CV) to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) for the position of Indian team coach.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"I would be happy to get that two line CV from the media source. If I had to send a 2 line resume, my name was enough," Sehwag told UCWeb We-Media in his trademark witty style.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The former hard-hitting batsman insisted that he sent a two-page resume in compliance with BCCI rules.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
A BCCI official had said a few days ago that Sehwag had sent in a two-line application for the job of India coach before he was persuaded to submit a full resume by the Indian cricket board.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
His application reportedly said that he is a "mentor and a coach of Kings XI Punjab in the Indian Premier League and has played with all these (Indian) boys before".<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Sehwag also asserted that India will defeat arch-rivals Pakistan in the final of the ICC Champions Trophy on Sunday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Recalling his playing days, Sehwag said he enjoyed dominating the Pakistan bowlers, specially former fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"Pakistan was that one team against which I always loved hitting boundaries, especially against Shoaib Akhtar who used to bowl at 150 km\/h," the 38-year-old said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Sehwag had enraged former Pakistan wicket-keeper<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Rashid Latif when he belittled the men in green in a congratulatory message for the Indian team on Twitter.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
This prompted Latif to issue a rant in a 15-minute video against Sehwag and the Indian team.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Sehwag however, declined to comment on the issue.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"This eventually portrays Rashid Latif's character. I haven't seen that video and neither do I want to. Whatever I had said was in good spirit and it should have been taken with a pinch of salt," he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
When asked to compare between former India captain Sourav Ganguly and Sachin Tendulkar, Sehwag said, "Sourav taught me how to keep patience and is my all-time favourite captain."<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"On the other hand, Sachin gave me confidence, broke my superstitions and playing with him was like playing with the wall, you could play without any tension and hit boundaries freely."<\/p>\r\n\r\n
