Dream11 IPL 2020: Virender Sehwag mocks Ben Stokes and Manish Pandey
Ahead of the Rajasthan vs Hyderabad live Dream11 IPL 2020 game, Virender Sehwag took to his social media accounts to give his take on the anticipated contest. He also took this opportunity to mock out-of-form cricketers like Rajasthan all-rounder Ben Stokes and Hyderabad batsman Manish Pandey.
Virender Sehwag, nicknaming Ben Stokes as ‘Commando’, said that “a commando is hired to fire on the opposition, not on themselves”. The cricketer-turned-commentator was referring to Stokes’ struggles with both bat and ball this season. While the English all-rounder has played four matches for Rajasthan in the Dream11 IPL 2020, he has scored only 80 runs while opening the innings and is yet to take a single wicket, while maintaining an expensive economy rate of 9.66.

Batting in the middle-order for Hyderabad, Pandey has played nine matches to score 212 runs. The right-handed batsman has maintained an average of 23.55 and has scored two fifties in the process.
