AUS vs IND, Australia Reveal Success Mantra Against Cheteshwar Pujara: Wear Out His Patience

By IANS News January 09, 2021 • 18:41 PM View: 877

Australian bowlers are countering Cheteshwar Pujara's patience with patience in the ongoing series against India with fast bowler Pat Cummins revealing that they have planned to frustrate him and the Indian batting by drying up his run-scoring even if it requires bowling 200-300 balls in an innings at him.

Cummins's spell of four for 29 in India's first innings of the third Test on Saturday included the wicket of Pujara, who had scored three centuries on way to aggregating 521 runs at 74.5 on the previous tour in 2018-19 and had earned man of the series award. This time though, the India No. 3 has struggled and made just 113 runs in five innings so far at an average of 22.6.
