It's not uncommon to see a legendary swinger of the cricket bat grab the nearest golf club and spend time on the greens. Kapil Dev and Brian Lara come to mind. Now it's the turn of Virender Sehwag. His technical skills were so impressive that he couldn't resist calling his former cricket coach for a crash course in golf. Read about his latest addiction in Indiatimes.
Sehwag connects with the ball perfectly, making it sail high, straight out of the field and on to the terrace of a flat at a distance. The sound of the ball hitting a green fibre sheet on the terrace was clearly audible. Even the woman of the house heard it and quickly came out to see if nothing was broken, before returning the ball.
