Gautam Gambhir wants this player to open with Rohit Sharma in ODIs

Former Indian cricketer Gautam Gambhir feels that Ishan Kishan should be opening alongside Rohit Sharma in ODIs for the next few years.

The 41-year-old thinks the "debate is over" after Kishan's impressive 210-run innings against Bangladesh and that the youngster should be chosen as the opener ahead of players like KL Rahul.

"He got what 200 by the 35th over mark? You can't look at anyone beyond Ishan Kishan. He has to be given a longer run. He can also keep wickets as well, so he can do two jobs for you. So for me, that discussion shouldn't be there. If someone else had got a double-hundred, I think we would've gone gung-ho over that individual, but it's not the case with Ishan Kishan." said Gambhir in an interview.
