Cheteshwar Pujara got his runs in the second innings when there was not much pressure. However, runs are runs and it must have added a shot in the arm to the right-hander’s confidence.

Pujara will like to continue to produce runs in his own way.

The Indian skipper has been simply brilliant in the ongoing series. He has shed off any doubts over his credentials in England like a tree sheds off its leaves in winter.

Kohli has scored 440 runs in the six innings with two centuries and two fifties. Therefore, the onus will be once again on him to provide stability in the middle order.
