After Sehwag’s cryptic tweet, fans are nothing but clueless. One asked the cricketer, “Hi sehwag, account hacked???” Another tweeted, “Anyone don't call... I think Account has hacked. If you call then hacked will get your data...I am not sure about this but I am saying this just only for security purpose. May be @virendersehwag sir is doing some prank with us.” A third fan wrote, “Account is hacked I guess, don't call and loose your number to a scam guy,” while a fourth tweeted, “@TwitterIndia I think @virendersehwag account hacked,” requesting Twitter India to look into the matter.






While many followers continued to speculate, one user pointed out the pattern in the number mentioned in the tweet. The cricket lover replied to Sehwag’s tweet and wrote, “112 - Score in 1-wicket win while scoring most of the runs against at Auckland, 2004; 083 - Score in famous chase at Chennai; 319 - Highest Test score.” He noted the cricketer’s best scores till date, trying to decode Virendra Sehwag’s tweet.
