I am a big fan of Sehwag but that question was really stupid..Sanath was senior than Sehwag..We can say that Sehwag was inspired by Sanath

[@PAVAN2146]

Most of the Cricket fans like Sehwag. That Journalist insulted not only a senior player but also Cricket.😂🤦🏻‍♂️
Sehwag fan but still lots of respect to Sanath Jayasuriya for setting great example for youngsters like Sehwag and many players.
Lots of lots of respect from India for being the most destructive left hand batsman ever in the world and for being equally talented as Sachin. 🇮🇳🇱🇰🙏

[@sankhawkulathantille]

Inspired by Shewag? What a silly question! Jayasuriya was thrashing bowlers all over the world way before Shewag ever entered the scene. You guys should ask that question from Shewag, if he was inspired by Jayasuriya :)

[@vinuchandran376]

im an indian ... and you are right bro... at 96 worldcup the world really loved this guy

[@nijabharatiya9214]

That was a dumb question from a dumb reporter who knows little about cricket. Cheers to Sanath for his humble reply

[@ugithdahanayaka5616]

Exactly

[@refersonu]

You are correct, bro......that was an insult to the legendary Jayasuriya

[@Rahulraj-ts6xv]

Sankha Widuranga Kulathantille yes..I am a big fan of Sehwag but that question was really insulting..Sanath is legend..yes I can say that Dilshan was inspired by Sehwag.

[@asma3392]

Jayasuriya 'inspired' by Shewag ? What nonsense did I just watch ? It's like asking whether Sachin was inspired by Joe Root. Absolutely insulting, Please do your research before posting ridiculous videos.

[@tanmaysurve295]

I admit mate the word inspired was incorrect instead did you love sehwag bat could have been a better question

[@ssnadig]

One man, who destroyed the careers of so many bowlers.. but very soft in talking.. Always used to hate him, while he used to bat, but what a new dimension he brought to the world cricket. Pinch hitting in first 15 overs, you dared it and made ODI more interesting

[@ujjawalsingh1136]

Most dangerous indian bowler
Jayasuriya : Manoj prabhakar 🤣

[@yondaimesultan6003]

Hahaha nice one bro, imagine if he reslly said that 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Nirsterkur]

He ended his cricketing career Goddamnit! 🤣

[@marioroshain130]

When Sanath started hitting bowlers all over the ground shewag hasn't even started his cricket career what nonsense

[@achyuthanandan3614]

Before 2000 only , Sanath ruled world with blazing shots. Mainly square cut six, bottom hand shots and flick shot six, Awesome.
Sachin & Sanath are great competitors. Both have mutual respect each other.

[@MrMdAman103]

What nonsense?it is sehwag who followed jaysuriya 's footsteps. ...

[@rachitsingh9214]

God of ODI cricket 💐💐💐💐

[@amityadu1]

Respect jaysurya..🙏🙏

[@udaramethmal839]

Sewage might have followed Sanath but.Whole world know that Jayasuriya is the biggest hitter of the world after viv richard... Should be miss spelled by the reporter due to lack of knowleedge in cricket

[@saviodesilva7933]

Sewage?🤯

[@userKK2023]

Finally a legend from the 90's talked about the threat of Kumble!

[@achyuthanandan3614]

Kumble is fighter, say never die attitude.

[@The04prasanga]

Most batsman including great Brian Lara has said Anil Kumble was the most difficult indian bowler to face at that time.

[@warunakumara7671]

sanath was a really humble person that he appreciate each indian cricketer very much we still love him still india doesnt have a great bowler like kumble hes the best indian spinner to me respect

[@rusiruuyanahewa8195]

All the fast bowlers had nightmares because of this legend ❤️❤❤
Proud that he’s from my home town!!!

[@sairam_604]

How can jayasuriya get inspired by Sehwag? By the time sehwag started playing for India, Jayasuriya was thrashing all world class bowlers.

[@theslash9210]

Sehwag inspired jayasuriya??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Sehwag himself told that started watching cricket from 92 wc... And sanath was already playing from 89 and had changed the cricket in 96 wc.. Sehwag came way later

[@digaarr7598]

Legend sanath❤

[@thealphayt3904]

The right question was not “Are your inspired when you watch Sehwag bat? ” it is “Does Sehwag’s batting style remind you of your playing days.?”

[@ramandeepsingh1669]

Jayasuriya was a one day wonder..sachin sehwag sanath sangakkara..the 4 ess..too good

[@Bruh-ys3sx]

One day wonder? This dude dominated 90s and early 2000s. You must be trippin

[@rathnayakeprasanna1536]

Master Blaster

[@rk-ig9mb]

Legend

[@skcn3704]

Infact it was javagal srinath who had more success against sanath Jayasuriya.. most of his centuries against India have come in Srinath's absence...

[@wimaltewaraperuma241]

Sanath went back home after the match.

[@mdnadsy]

Sehwag was inspired by Sanath

[@sajalamendis4765]

She is not the only female journalist asked those stupid questions

[@ryanperera5243]

why would sehwag inspire sanath ? wtf

[@forevercricket4506]

Stupid question ...
