Dream11 IPL 2020: Virender Sehwag trolls Jaydev Unadkat and Robin Uthappa

On Tuesday, October 6, Virender Sehwag took to his social media accounts to preview the upcoming Mumbai vs Rajasthan Dream11 IPL 2020 game. Rajasthan made a confident start to the tournament, as they registered back-to-back wins over Chennai and Punjab respectively. However, they lost their course by losing to Kolkata and Bangalore in their next two matches. In his video, Virender Sehwag jokingly cited the poor run-of-form of their experienced cricketers Jaydev Unadkat and Robin Uthappa as one of the reasons behind the team’s struggles.

Virender Sehwag mocked the Rajasthan franchise for purchasing Jaydev Unadkat and Robin Uthappa during the Dream11 IPL 2020 auction. Speaking about Unadkat’s form this season (just 1 wicket in four matches), the former Indian opening batsman jokingly said that with Rajasthan spending millions on the pacer at the auctions since 2018, he might have to “give Rajasthan money” back from next year onwards owing to his recent performance.

Virender Sehwag also spoke about Robin Uthappa’s form in similar vein. The stylish right-handed batsman has scored just 33 runs in his four Dream11 IPL 2020 innings. Considering the franchise purchased the cricketer for ₹3 crore at the auction, Sehwag described the move as a “blunder” due to his batting performance. The 2011 World Cup-winner mocked the franchise’s decision of buying Robin Uthappa by comparing it to motorcycles with the statement - “Paise lekar gaye kharidne Bullet, par aa gayi Luna” (Translation: This is almost as if you went with money to buy a Bullet, but instead got a Luna).
