#2 Who might struggle- Cheteshwar Pujara

Should India consider other options at No.3 like Hanuma Vihari?
Should India consider other options at No.3 like Hanuma Vihari?

Let's face it, Cheteshwar Pujara does not deliver all the promises that he shows. Pujara is one of the rare batsmen who still play the Test matches the traditional match way. But this has been the downfall of Pujara many a time.

Pujara's strategy of playing the long game has quite worked the way that the Indian team has expected it. Pujara is not the most comfortable looking batsman in the Indian team while travelling overseas. Apart from the lone century in England, Pujara has failed to build a good platform for the middle order in alien conditions.

This tour to Australia might be no different from the one from the previous were struggled to make runs while the rest of his teammates were able to adapt to the pace, and the bounce of the wicket.
