Experience (the past) demonstrates that Sehwag has a poor record; choosing him anyway is evidence that one hopes for more than experience shows: ergo, hope triumphs over experience.

Thank you.
Shewag has two experieinces.
After his debut till 2005. He played extremely well.
But, after 2005 till now, his experiece is very bad. He even never scored one century.
So, my doubt is that here experience refers to which one?
Here refer to [choosing him anyway is evidence that one hopes for more than experience shows]

The experience referred to is the bad part. The text says nothing about prior to 2005.
