Pujara couldn't make it big in ODI cricket

Cheteshwar Pujara was seen as Rahul Dravid's successor when he first came into the Indian team. While he has been able to do so in Test cricket, Pujara failed terribly in ODIs. Pujara became the mainstay of India's middle-order after the retirement of stalwarts like Dravid and Laxman. He scored big runs and cemented his place in the Test side.

Owing to his Test form, Pujara was rewarded with a place in the Indian ODI team against Zimbabwe in 2013. However, Pujara looked completely out of sorts in ODIs. In the 5 ODIs he played for Team India, Pujara scored just 51 runs and was eventually dropped from the team. Pujara's limited-overs career suffered a big blow when he wasn't picked up in the IPL either.
