Virender Sehwag’s cheeky sense of humour is not unknown to anybody. Therefore, when Sehwag took to Twitter to wish former Indian fast bowler, Venkatesh Prasad on his birthday, it wasn’t surprise that would be a punchline in it.
Venkatesh Prasad has given many glorious moments to Indian cricket and Sehwag chose to pick one of those moments and compose his birthday wish in context to that
Hpy Bday Venkatesh.The Prasad u gave all Indians by getting Aamir Sohail bowled in 96WC is still fresh in our hearts pic.twitter.com/RHbzQuQuPA

The ‘prasad’ refers to the incident that took place during India vs Pakistan match during the 1996 World Cup. Pak batsman Amir Sohail had hit a boundary to Prasad’s delivery but his stumps were rattled by the very next delivery by Prasad. What followed was a very aggressive behaviour by Prasad who showed Sohail the way to the pavilion with an animated gesture which had the spectators bursting with excitement.
Sehwag’s followers om Twitter’s weren’t late to respond to this witty little birthday wish by the former opener.

@virendersehwag Just like the old times, Sehwag never lets his strike rate fall down. Another day, another great tweet. ??
