10 dream battles between players from different eras 

Virender Sehwag vs Jeff Thompson

Ad

See ball, hit ball. This was the mantra of Virender Sehwag whenever he came out to bat. He neither cared about the bowler's reputation nor about what he was bowling. All he cared about was that the ball coming at him should be dispatched to the boundary.

He did that against every single bowler he faced without getting off-guard often. But, facing some of the quicks from a generation prior to his would have posed a big challenge to the Nawab of Najafgarh. One bowler who would have certainly given Sehwag a run for his money is former Australian pacer Jeff Thompson.

The New South Welshman, with a slingy action, is considered by many in the sport to be the fastest bowler of all time. It was difficult for someone like Viv Richards to get the better of Thompson and a battle between the Aussie and Sehwag will surely be a treat to watch.
