As i read that, i tried to think of a player very similar to him in technique and poise.
Oddly enough, i found that Graham Thorpe is quite similar.
That bit about ''his bat angle is almost perpendicular to the trajectory of the ball'', and ''almost one of the 'latest' players of the ball'' and that playing with a very straight bat. Also Thorpe doesn't have the best techique [dents to sit on the backfoot more often than not]. Pity that Thorpe is not half as audacious as Sehwag is.

If you don't get what i mean, never mind me.
