It was a huge moment for me playing alongside him. I wish him all the best for the life beyond cricket,&quot; said Ganguly.&nbsp;Sehwag, who donned India colours from 1999 to 2013, announced his retirement on Tuesday.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nThe only Indian triple centurion, an emotional Sehwag on Tuesday credited Ganguly for bringing out the Test player in him.&nbsp;&quot;Ganguly sacrificed his opening spot for me, he loved me and had confidence in me. So, thank you Sourav, I am grateful to you. You saw me as a Test player. Had I not played in Tests, I would not have scored these so many runs,&quot; the right-hander had said on Tuesday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"line-height: 20.8px; text-align: justify;\">(IANS)<\/span><\/p>\r\n",
