IND V AUS: Need To Motivate Yourself And Be Prepared Whenever Test Matches Are Coming, Says Pujara
Now, on the cusp of playing 100 Tests in the second Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test from Friday at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi, Pujara admitted it has been a challenging ride for him to be a one-format player for India, adding that he had to motivate himself and be ready to get the runs for the team whenever Test matches happen.
"If we look at the current Test schedule, on average, we play nine Test matches. When you play one series and go back home, unless you play first-class cricket, you are not in touch with the game. Sometimes you are sitting at home and watching cricket on TV. That is the most important time for a Test cricketer to keep challenging himself, training and practising although you are not looking forward to any particular series in 1-2 months' time."
