"I think these are all media created. They bat together and chit chat when they are at the crease; they also talk to each other when they are fielding in the slips... so I don't see any enmity or fight there. Its all created by you guys," he said.
Speaking to IANS, Sehwag also had his say on India’s triumph over Windies in the first Test at Antigua. Former India star opener said that it is the consistent show of the bowlers in recent times that has made the Indian outfit world beaters and the No.1 ranked Test team.
"It is not that we didn't have quality bowlers before. In my time we had the likes of Javagal Srinath, Ashish (Nehra) and Zaheer Khan and its great to see the way Jasprit Bhumrah, Mohammad Shami, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and the likes of Umesh (Yadav) -- he has been around for a long time -- have performed. It is good to see the way these bowlers are bowling -- and ensures we are a formidable line-up," he said.
In the ongoing Ashes series, Ben Stokes produces one of the most remarkable knock to level the series 1-1 against Australia. Sehwag believes that such performances are definitely brilliant advertisements for Test cricket and the World Test Championship that started with the 2019 Ashes.
"The championship has come at the right time is what I feel. When there are such exciting matches (Ashes) it will be great to have the Test Championships. This will be great for the playing nations and for the format... more exciting and more competitive," he pointed.
At a time when the injury to Steve Smith has had the world talking about protection and how the ICC might wish to look at ways to ensure the safety of players, Sehwag feels that the bowlers also deserve to get some leeway as the rules have already handed batsmen quite an advantage as pacers can bowl only two bouncers in an over in the long format.
"I never used the chest pad in my life... So I don't think I need to use neck pads. Batsmen have the bat in hand, helmet on head, what more do you need? Let's give something to the bowlers," he said.
