Australian opening batsman David Warner believes that his Delhi Daredevils' team-mate Virender Sehwag is the best Twenty20 batsman he has seen.
"In terms of batsman in T20 it is hard to go past Sehwag when he gets going, but there are so many good players going around," Fox Sports quoted Warner, as saying.
Sehwag had topped the list of run-scorers for Delhi Daredevils in the Indian Premier League season three.
The dashing opener made 346 runs at 25.42 from 14 games, but will not be taking part in the Twenty20 World Cup in the West Indies after suffering a shoulder injury.
Warner also said that Australia is a strong contender to win the tournament, and he reckons teams from the sub-continent, including India, will be the biggest dangers.
"The sub-continent teams are obviously tough because the wickets tend to be slow and low here. Obviously we need to just get through our group and then we play either India or Sri Lanka I think so the sub-continent teams look like they will be our biggest challenge," Warner said.
The 23-year-old has been in remarkable form ahead of the tournament, and scored his second successive half-century to guide Australia to a thumping 101 run victory against Windward Islands in their final warm-up match.
He goes into Australia's Group A clash with Pakistan on Sunday in top form after blasting 72 from 49 balls in Tuesday's one-run loss to Zimbabwe.
