Cricket Legends: Sehwag & Sachin

The question references the famous Manchester derby where Manchester City scored late in stoppage time. Officials had originally added 4 minutes of stoppage time at the end of regular time.

Sachin Tendulkar's Test batting average against Australia is approximately 56.08. This reflects his strong record against one of the toughest bowling attacks in Test cricket history.

Ashley Giles is the only bowler to have dismissed Sachin Tendulkar 'stumped' in Test cricket. This rare dismissal occurred during England's tour of India in 2001-02.

Sachin Tendulkar scored 446 runs in the 1998 home Test series against Australia, including a magnificent 155 in Chennai. This was one of his most productive series against the Australians.

Virender Sehwag scored 8 test centuries outside the subcontinent out of his 23 total centuries. However, the question incorrectly spells his name as 'sehwag' instead of 'Sehwag'. While the answer is numerically correct, the question quality is poor due to the spelling error.

Sehwag scored 254* against Pakistan at Lahore in 2006, hitting 47 fours and 5 sixes in that innings. This was one of the most aggressive Test centuries, with a strike rate of 133. The 47 fours is a record for a Test innings in India.

Sehwag has an exceptional Test batting average of 91.14 against Pakistan, significantly higher than his overall career average. This comes from matches like his triple century at Multan and the 254* at Lahore. Option B (92) is close but not exact.

Sehwag's best bowling figures in Test cricket are 5 for 104 runs against England in Chennai (2002). While primarily known as a batsman, Sehwag was a useful part-time off-spinner who occasionally contributed important breakthroughs.

Sehwag took 29 wickets in Test cricket at an average of 43.36. While not a specialist bowler, his off-break bowling was occasionally effective, particularly in home conditions where the pitch assisted spinners.

Sehwag captained India in only 2 Test matches - both against Sri Lanka in 2008 when regular captain Rahul Dravid was injured. India won the series 2-0 under his leadership. He was never a permanent captain.

Sehwag made his Test debut against South Africa at Bloemfontein in November 2001. This was during the tour where India achieved a historic 1-0 series victory. His debut was significant as he opened the batting alongside Shiv Sunder Das.

Sehwag scored 105 runs on his Test debut against South Africa at Bloemfontein in 2001. This was a confident start to his Test career, though it came in the second innings after a failure in the first innings of his debut match.

Sehwag hit 66 sixes in Test cricket at the time this question was written (note: this count may have increased since then). He was one of the most aggressive hitters of the ball, known for clearing boundaries regularly. Option B (51) is significantly lower.
