New Delhi: On Tuesday, the Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) honoured Virender Sehwag by naming gate No. 2 of the Feroz Shah Kotla stadium, here, as the 'Virender Sehwag Gate'. The inauguration of the gate was done with a small ceremony organised by the DDCA, but Sehwag's wife, Aarti, couldn't accompany her husband on the occasion due to health issues; however, she more than made up for it by tweeting her emotions for her husband.
"He is a man who has taught me ki zindagi achievements se bahut badkar hai, but still I feel so proud of his achievements as a player and 1/2," the first of her two tweets read, describing how Viru taught her that life is much bigger than achievements.

"your sensitivity as a person. I am very proud of you Viru and love you deeply. So happy to see a gate named after you 2/2," she posted.

After the gate-opening ceremony on Tuesday, Sehwag, speaking to the media present on the occasion, said it was a huge honour for him and reminded him of the days when he used to enter through the gate in his beginning years.
"It's an honour to have a gate named after me at the Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium in New Delhi. I remember when I started off, I used to daily cross this gate and now it has my name. There will be many more cricketers from this state who will have stands, gates, pavilions named after them; but I am glad that I am the first one. I feel very fortunate and would like to thank the DDCA for this honour," Sehwag said.
"My wife and mother are not here as they are not well. I would have loved if they were here with me today," Sehwag added.
