In January 2007, Sehwag was dropped from the ODI team and later from the Test team as well. During his term as vice-captain, Sehwag skippered the team in place of injured Dravid in 2 ODIs and 1 Test.

By early 2009, Sehwag had reestablished himself as one of the best performing batsmen in ODI cricket.
