But even after retiring from the game, Sehwag hasn't stopped entertaining his fans. Only now, from the cricket field, the 37-year-old has moved to the social media platform and keeping people in good spirits with his witty tweets.
Viru's superbly hilarious posts, especially his humorous birthday wishes, are having the same effect on Twitterati as his sixes had on cricket followers.
They are so popular that he should be crowned the 'Nawab of Twitter' and host a special 'Comedy Nights with Viru' on the micro-blogging site.
Here are some of his hilarious tweets:
He wished former cricketer-turned-commentator Arun Lal on his birthday with this witty take on the 61-year-old's usage of idioms.
