Sehwag’s Superstition And India’s First Win

India started its World Cup 2011 journey by defeating its neighbor country Bangladesh by a margin of 87 runs. The day and night match was held at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur, Dhaka. Bangladesh skipper Shakib Al Hasan won the toss and elected to field. India started off well and made a massive score of 370 runs. In response Bangladesh made a score of 283/9. Virendra Sehwag scored 175 runs, which is his highest score in ODI. But the interesting fact is that Sehwag played this match wearing a numberless jersey that just went unnoticed by all. Is this a new style statement of Sehwag or just superstition? When asked about this, Sehwag said that many astrologists advised him to use different numbers in his jersey. Fed up of this, he decided to use a numberless jersey.
