Our team was the best in ODI World Cup 2007: Virender Sehwag
Sehwag said – I locked myself in the room after being out
New Delhi. India definitely won the 2007 T20 World Cup. But in the year 2007 ODI World Cup itself, the Indian team had to face defeat badly. The Indian team was out of the tournament only after playing some preliminary matches. Sehwag mentioned this incident in an interview. He told how he did not come out of the hotel room for two days.
Virender Sehwag said in Gaurav Kapoor’s show Breakfast With Champions, “The 2007 World Cup hurt the most. Because our team was one of the best teams in the world. If you look for a better team than this on paper, you probably won’t find it before or after the World Cup. Last season we played the final. Then the next season we won the final. But this team was different.
Virender Sehwag further said, “I feel sad even today because we lost 2 out of 3 matches. We had registered only one victory. We had tickets to go back after 2 days. I was so depressed after the defeat that I locked myself in my room for two days. I didn’t see anyone’s face. Neither the housekeeping nor any room service person. Didn’t even talk to anyone.”
Let us tell you that in the 2007 World Cup, India was in Group B. India’s journey ended in third place. Team India had registered only one win which came against Bermuda. Apart from this, they had to face defeat badly from Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. The final match was played between Sri Lanka and Australia. Which was won by the Kangaroos.
