Speaking about India batter Abhishek Sharma, who has played only T20Is till now, ex-India captain Saurav Ganguly said Abhishek should not be compared to Virender Sehwag, but he can play. "Sehwag is an absolute champion," he stated. Ganguly added Abhishek will "get tracked into the 50-over format" as well. Sehwag scored 8,586 runs in 104 Test matches.
