Indian opening batsman Virender Sehwag rubbished a media report that he has written a letter to the BCCI expressing his desire to retire from T20 internationals, says a report in The Hindustan Times.
"Another baseless story being run! I have not requested to be rested for any match in any format of the game!
Fingers crossed, raring to go!," Sehwag posted on micro-blogging site Twitter.
Earlier, Mail Today reported that a senior BCCI official said that Sehwag had told the board he wouldn't want to be considered for selection in T20 matches in the future.
"He has informed the board that he doesn't want to play T20 Internationals anymore and would like to concentrate on the longer versions. He cited fitness and the rigours of T20 cricket as the reason behind his decision," he said.
"He is experienced enough to realise the needs of the team and he isn't someone who would question the decision of the team management. Only a self-centred player would do that," BCCI official was quoted saying in the report.
