Dashing opening batsman Virender Sehwag is confident about the Indian cricket team doing well against Pakistan in the upcoming Test and one-day series.
"We did very well when India visited Pakistan [last year]. They are now coming to India and this time we will have the crowd behind us. There's no reason why we should not do well," Sehwag said in Mumbai on Friday.
"Obviously, it cannot get bigger than this," he said, talking about the forthcoming series.
The Pakistan team is set to land in India in the last week of February to play a series of three Tests and five One-Day Internationals. It will be their first visit to the country since 1999.
Sehwag did not sound too concerned about his indifferent form in the limited-overs format of the game even as he scaled a new individual high for the country by becoming the first Indian to score a triple ton.
The flamboyant opener achieved the feat in Pakistan last season.
"It's just a passing phase [his poor form in ODIs]," he said.
Asked about his expected confrontation with Pakistan pace ace Shoaib Akhtar, Sehwag said he has faced all the top bowlers in the world and got a triple hundred against Pakistan and also two big hundreds against all-conquering Australia and South Africa.
"There are other bowlers too in the Pakistan team. It's not only about Shoaib," he pointed out. Sehwag, however, was not interested in being drawn in to conversation about the Indian team's composition.
"I am not in a position to say about team's composition. It's for the team management. As far as I am concerned I am happy to bat at any position," he said.
Sehwag, whose side India 'B' failed to move into the final of the N K P Salve Challenger series after losing both the league matches, took time off on Friday to indulge in promotional activities for his sponsors.
