http://www.senore.com/Cricket/CA-Pujara-c1209 geared up to revive his career – Cricket News Update
Cheteshwar Pujara, the young Indian batsman, is disappointed that he could not play a lot of international cricket recently because of injuries but is geared up to make a comeback in the national team.
The 24-year-old made his Test debut against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746 in 2010 and played a match-winning knock of 72 in his very first appearance at the ultimate level of the sport. He could not play a big innings at the world-stage after that but
the right-handed middle-order batsman is tipped for a great future.
Pujara has a smashing record in first-class cricket as he averages 54.12 runs per innings, with the help of 14 hundreds and 21 half-centuries.
In http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 ‘A’s on-going tour of the Caribbean, the batsman from Rajkot has performed exceptionally well and appears likely to find a place in the Test team in the coming season.
The right-hander is disappointed that he could not represent his country in two high-profile series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 and Australia last year because of an injury.
“Last year (when he had a ligament injury) was particularly disappointing as we had two big Test tours to England and Australia. I knew I had to prove myself all over again after recovering from the injury," said Pujara.
India is currently going through a rebuilding phase in the longer version of the sport as their legendary batsman; http://www.senore.com/Cricket/VVS-Laxman-c2772
are also not expected to play much longer.
This provides Pujara and some other young batsmen an opportunity to cement their places in the Test team.
Pujara played for the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the fifth season of the Indian Premier League and expressed that playing alongside some of the greats of the game was an amazing experience for him.
He added, “In terms of preparation for the India A tour, I couldn't have asked for anything better. Facing http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Z-Khan-c98379 in the nets was ideal. I couldn't have asked for more. It was frustrating (not to
get too many games), but it was also a great opportunity to learn alongside some experienced cricketers."
