Indian test specialist Cheteswar Pujara was seen practising in the nets ahead of the Carribean test series. After a long break, he is now geared up to take up the field yet again from 22nd August.
Cheteswar Pujara was one of the chief architects behind the Australian down under earlier this year. Pujara looked in a very fine touch throughout the series as he bagged Man of the Series award for his stellar knocks. Additionally, he rose to his career-best ranking right after the series. Currently, he occupies the third spot in the ICC test batsmen rankings.
Pujara”s presence will play an important role in India”s chances at the ICC test Championship. The two-match Test series against West Indies marks the beginning of the same. He will be playing several games on the trot as India will also be hosting Proteas and Bangladesh series in consecutive months.
