Virender Sehwag becomes Santa for his Twitter fans

Former Indian batsman Virender Sehwag is not a new name for the cricket fans. During his playing days, Sehwag was one of the most prolific entertainers with the bat. Now, after having retired, he has not been short of any entertainment either. He never missed out on cashing in with a witty or funny tweet whenever a chance is round the corner. The former opener has made a name for himself in the social media space. With his hilarious digs on the social media, he has been an entertainer off the field.

Sehwag is known for his hilarious tweets that are pun-heavy and loaded with sarcasm. His fans often look up to his tweets for the birthday wishes that he reserves for his fellow cricketers. This time around, it was not the words of Virender Sehwag that caught the attention but the celebratory mood. Sehwag caught the attention with his visual appeal rather than the verbal appeal.

On the occasion of Christmas, Sehwag posted a picture of himself animated as Santa Claus. He also added the caption to wish all his fans a very happy Christmas. Virender Sehwag wrote, “Merry Christmas, Teri Christmas, Sabki Christmas !”
