Dolph and Charlotte both enjoyed the experience of batting against the former Indian cricketer. They also had the chance to bowl at Sehwag, who seemed to resist his legendary aggressive approach of smashing the ball over the boundary.

Both Dolph and Charlotte showed plenty of promise as up-and-coming cricketers, having played baseball and softball respectively to a high standard in the USA. "That was an awesome experience, and we're grateful to Virender for giving us our first taste of playing cricket," said Dolph.
