Sehwag after hitting 219 runs:-

Sehwag after hitting double tonne said that, "even me don't "Never dreamt of it. I told Gauti if we showed a little patience we could a big one. But I was never expecting a double century. It's a true time, you can play all your shots. When I decided I wanted to hit a six, I went and did it with a straight bat. I know people expected me to score a double-century, so thanks to them. And thanks to my family. I had said earlier that the top order was not contributing, and it was my job. Never changed my batting through this innings. I just told my self that I needed to bat through the Batting Powerplay, and I would get the double hundred. When Sammy dropped my chance, I knew God was with me. I am tired, yes, I am an old man now."
