prabhat_k...I appreciate your opinion but I always believed that you play any sport to win. Either you agree with me or not, test cricket is the ultimate cricket and I enjoy watching test cricket alot. Virendra Segwag is a breed of player who plays test cricket to win the match not barely to draw it. He is someone who comes to open the bat on the first day of test match at MCG and score 195 before tea against Australian attack in their backyard. He is someone who comes to open the batting against Pakistan in Pakistan and scores a double hundred before the end of the days play. He is someone who scores debut century against South Africa in South Africa and scores a triple hundred (more than 250 runs before tea) against South Africa in South Africa.

I highly respect your opinion for Vivian Richards but that doesn't make Virendra Sehwag a less great player. If you true follower of Cricket I don't think you will argue that Virendra Sehwag scored close to 5000 test run in only 57 Tests at an average of 52 and Strike rate of 80 just because of his good pull shot.
