Irfan Pathan Advocates Abhishek's ODI World Cup Selection After T20 Heroics
ODI World Cup: Former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan has urged the national selectors to consider T20I star Abhishek Sharma for the ODI World Cup, stating that the left-hander’s explosive T20 performances could translate effectively into the ODI format if used smartly.
Reacting to Abhishek’s recent heroics in T20 cricket, Pathan acknowledged that the batter currently sits behind names like Yashasvi Jaiswal and Ruturaj Gaikwad in the list of players waiting for permanent entry into the ODI setup.
However, he emphasised that Abhishek’s power-hitting ability makes him a compelling option worthy of serious consideration. Pathan feels that with Abhishek's entry, the Indian team can make the most of their Power-play in ODIs, just like they do in T20Is.
