Australia v India - 1st Test: Day 4

Cheteshwar Pujara has been in top form in Australia, having scored a crucial century and a half-century in the first Test at Adelaide. Despite this, his solid technique and patience are not considered to be a suitable quality in the high voltage Indian Premier League where the crowd expects each ball to go over the boundary. His inability to muscle the ball to the fence and clear the ropes affects his chances of getting picked at the auction every year.

Despite this, Pujara has appeared for three different franchises (KKR, RCB, and KXIP) from 2008 to 2014. In 30 matches, he has scored 390 runs at a below-par average of 20.52 and a strike rate of 99.74.

Due to his defensive style of batting and inability to slog the ball over the fence, Pujara will probably go unsold again at the auction.
