New Delhi: Flamboyant Indian opener Virender Sehwag rubbished reports that he is going to quit playing T20 internationals for India.

Mail Today quoted a senior BCCI official saying, “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.

Sehwag on the micro-blogging site Twitter posted, “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 has not been in the best of the form in all three formats in the recent past.
