Sehwag in Time list of heroes

New Delhi April 20. Cricketer Virender Sehwag has been featured on the cover of the Time magazine's annual edition of ``Asian Heroes'', which also names the man behind the Delhi Metro project, E. Sreedharan, and an NGO which helped Gujarat's riot victims.

The three Indian names are among the 29 outstanding individuals and groups from Asia ``whose extraordinary courage, charisma or genius enabled them to make a big difference in their societies or fields'', the magazine said in a release here.

The other ``heroes'' featured in the issue include Pakistan's human rights activist, Asma Jahangir, and the Sri Lankan Prime Minister, Ranil Wickremesinghe.
