Former Pakistan pacer Rana Naved-ul-Hasan revealed his verbal spat with ex-India opener Virender Sehwag during their playing days and also said that he was the easiest batter to dismiss in Indian Team.

Rana recalled the 2005 six-match ODI series which was played in India and Pakistan won by 4-2, Rana revealed that he told Sehwag that if he is from Pakistan then he won’t be able to make it to the International cricket.

Rana claimed that he predicted getting Sehwag’s wicket in one of the games during a chat with Inzamam-ul-Haq and got him out next ball.

‘There was a match where Sehwag was playing well. I was the player of the tournament. The series was such that we were trailing 2-0. It was a best-five [six] series. In one of the games, Sehwag was hitting big. They almost scored 300. I asked Inzy bhai to give me the ball. I bowled a slow bouncer.’

I went up to him and said ‘You don’t know how to play. Had you been in Pakistan, I don’t think you would have ever made it to the international team. He said a few things back to me. On my way back I told Inzi bhai. ‘Next ball, he is getting out’. He was surprised. I bowled a back-of-the-hand slower ball, and an infuriated Sehwag tried to hit it big but holed out. The wicket was so important that we won that match. These are certain tricks of the fast bowler.’

Sehwag was the easiest to dismiss and the most difficult to bowl at was Rahul Dravid
