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 done.

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.
