Noted British writer Lord Jeffrey Archer is in awe of the way Virender Sehwag bats and considers him as the most exciting batsman ever other than the West Indies legend Sir Viv Richards.A close follower of Indian cricket, he says it's a treat to watch Sehwag plundering runs and punishing bowlers.The playwright feels that Indian cricket is too much influenced by Twenty20 cricket, by the IPL and too much of money is involved.Archer, also admires late Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi, Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid and Anil Kumble. Indian cricketers have often drawn praises from Archer, who describe them as the best ambassadors of the sport in the world.
