Sourav Ganguly wants Kohli to do a Sehwag with Rohit Sharma
New Delhi, Aug 22: He was instrumental in turning middle-order batsman Virender Sehwag into one of India's best Test openers and now former India skipper Sourav Ganguly wants current captain Virat Kohli to try the same trick with limited-overs deputy Rohit Sharma. While Rohit opens in ODIs, he bats in the middle-order in the longer format of the game.
"It's a new beginning for Virat Kohliand his boys. Not only is this a fresh start after the wins in the T20 and ODI series, they kick-start India's campaign in the ICC Test Championship, an effort by the authorities of the game to create that extra competitive punch in the best format of the game. Why is Test cricket still considered to be the best format of the game? One needs to cast a glance at the ongoing Ashes series to clear all doubts," Ganguly wrote in his column for Times of India.
