Sehwag is the hurdle

India opener Virender Sehwag will be a major hurdle for the hosts in the third cricket Test, feels Sri Lanka batsman Thilan Samaraweera. Thilan, who made 137 to push Sri Lanka to 425 in their first innings, said this will be a crucial match. He said Ojha bowled well throughout the innings. But if Sehwag gets out, a lot of things will turn around. He also said that still they are ahead by 250 runs. And if they can take couple of wickets, they are in the game. Sehwag was at his best as he led the team with 97 in 87 deliveries.

Thilan said his century was special as it came in difficult circumstances. He said he has scored runs when needed for the team but this is a special because this is a real Test wicket. He added saying 400 plus is a good total in this wicket which would be difficult to bat in the fourth innings. But unfortunately Prasanna and Angelo got out.
