Virender Sehwag trolls James Anderson for getting dismissed at King Pair, says 'Karma Bites'

King pair - a term used when a batsman gets out off 1st ball in both innings. Pair is getting out for 0 (facing more balls).

New Delhi, Nov 21: Former explosive India opener Virender Sehwag has trolled England pacer James Anderson with yet another hilarious tweet after the English batsman got dismissed for duck in both the innings of the second Test match against India at Vizag.

The 'Nawab of Najafgarh' wrote on his Twitter handle about how the English speedster dismissed him in 2011 for King pair - a term used when a batsman gets out off 1st ball in both innings. Pair is getting out for 0 (facing more balls).

The Delhi-dasher even went on terming it 'Karma' which has bitten Anderson, who was out 0, 0 off first balls he played.

This is what Sehwag tweeted:

James Anderson couldn't open his account in both the innings of the second Test match at ADA-VDCA cricket stadium in Visakhapatnam.

In the first innings, the left-handed batsman was plumbed by Ravichandran Ashwin while debutant off-spinner Jayant Yadav removed the former on the first delivery he faced.

Rubbing salt to the injury, fall of Anderson's wicket meant England lost the game by a whopping margin of 246 runs and India take 1-0 lead.

India scripted a resounding victory over visitors riding on a superlative effort from the spin troika of R Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja and Jayant Yadav.

The hosts, thus, clocked their second biggest victory in terms of runs against the visitors.

Having showed some tenacity yesterday to bat out 59.2 overs with 87/2, England were blown away this morning and lost five wickets in 33.4 overs in the first session before India bowled them out for 158.

It took India 24 balls and 22 minutes passed lunch to cruise victory and take a 1-0 lead with more than a session to spare.
