Cheteshwar Pujara
IND vs AUS: A big update has come out between India-New Zealand series. The Indian team will play the second test match against New Zealand in Pune from October 24. The third and last Test match of the series will be played at the historic Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai from November 1. After this, Team India will leave for Australia tour. On this tour, a 5-match test series will be played between the two teams. After a long time, both the teams are going to play 5 test matches in this series played under Border-Gavaskar Trophy. In such a situation, both the teams are preparing vigorously for this series.
Meanwhile, a big update has come out regarding the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. There are reports that the Indian team for this tour can be announced soon. There is a possibility that the selectors may announce the Indian team for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy on October 28. It is not yet clear who will be part of the Indian team for this tour. The question is also arising whether Cheteshwar Pujara, who has been out of Team India for a long time, will be able to return to the team. Recently, while playing for Saurashtra in Ranji Trophy, Pujara played an innings of 234 runs in 383 balls against Chhattisgarh. Since then, Pujara’s name is everywhere.
Great record in Australia
Cheteshwar Pujara had performed amazingly on the last two tours of Australia and played an important role in winning the series. In such a situation, Ajit Agarkar and his team can consider Pujara’s name keeping in mind his experience. Pujara, 36, was the leading run-scorer in the 2018-19 series with 521 runs. Three years later, again on the Australia tour, he impressed with the bat and scored 271 runs.
Pujara has not played any Test match for India since the World Test Championship final in June last year. However, his hunger to score runs is still not quenched. This is the reason why he is continuously playing domestic cricket and contributing with the bat. Pujara has spent a lot of time in county cricket in England this year, which is benefiting him in Ranji Trophy.
