Former England captain Michael Vaughan tells SportsCenter’s Swaroop Kar that Virender Sehwag is the best batsman in the world.

"I think Sehwag is the best batsman in the world. And as a spectator I can say that he is the best watched in the field," said Vaughan.

He also said that the Indian team under skipper MS Dhoni is the best side in contemporary cricket.

Speaking about Paul Harris' negative bowling tactics during the India-South Africa two-match Test series, Vaughan said, "I think he tried everything to keep Sehwag quiet. He bowled straight but still he was hit around the ground. I think South Africa need to see Sehwag's batting very carefully."

However, the former England captain was all praise for Dale Steyn.

"Steyn is the best seam bowler in the world. He is consistent and gets wicket in quick hauls. His 10-wicket haul in the first Test match against India at Nagpur was special for South Africa. And the fact that it came against India in India, makes him the best."
