The Indian batsman, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/CA-Pujara-c1209, has been ruled out of the game for another four months after he underwent a surgery on his right knee.
The 23-year-old right-handed batsman from Gujarat sustained the injury during season four of Indian Premier League (IPL), in May this year, where he was playing for the tournament runners up, Royal Challengers Bangalore. He missed

The http://www.senore.com/Cricket/V-Sehwag-c2739 is also recovering from shoulder surgery.
While talking to the media reporters on Tuesday, Pujara revealed that he had also injured his left knee during the second edition of Indian Premier League in 2009 in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/South-Africa-c757, but that did not bring a lot of problems for him, though
it was more painful at that time.
"The last time I injured my left knee, during IPL-II, there was a lot of pain," Pujara told a leading Indian newspaper.
"This time there was no pain at all and doctors believed I could get fit for the tour of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Andrew-Royd-Williams-c44596 (in England) who advised me to undergo surgery," he added further.

72 run knock in the second innings of the Bangalore Test to seal the series win for the hosts.
When asked about his future plans, Pujara said, "I don't know what the future holds. I'm hopeful of making a comeback. I think I have given my best during the opportunities I have got."
