The presence of Cheteshwar Pujara
Indian batting line up looks completely packed up from number 1-7, just number 3 position is for offer that too will be filled because of some spectacular performances in the last match. Though Pujara looked a weak commodity in the last match but he was not. Though he scored quite slowly in the last match but it is to be noted that he was able to bind the innings and stood there like an unbreakable wall. He faced a strong bowling line up with courage and determination. Grit is the word which should be associated to that Pujara’s innings. He was the one who did the hard work but was unfortunate to lose his wicket in an unlucky manner. No one in the team neither Dhawan, Vijay nor Rohit can do something like Pujara did. So Pujara’s presence in the team is of utmost importance and is one of the reasons why Rohit Sharma will be warming the bench for the remainder of the series.
