NEW DELHI: South Africa speed legend Dale Steyn considers India’s batting mainstay Cheteshwar Pujara may have rotated the attack better through the next evening of World Test Championship (WTC) final against New Zealand at Southampton.
SCORECARDPujara’s strike-rate was a constant topic of debate for a while now and also the India No.
3 did his stats no more great on Saturday, scoring off 8 54 balls.
He required 36 balls to remove the mark which was finally trapped facing wicket from New Zealand pacer Trent Boult.

Wearing black armbands in honor of Milkha Singhthey weathered a constant storm of ever-improving swing and seam bowling in the Kiwi pacers to get a single day of effort and parry from the English gloom.” …I am convinced when he (Pujara) appeared back and looked in the sample of movie investigation, he’d realize there are deliveries where he might have made the chance to possibly fold strike just a tiny bit longer,” Steyn mentioned on ESPNCricinfo.
“I found something come up and it had been just like 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 5, 0, 4, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 and a wicket.
I am convinced in most those 50 (54) balls, so he might have swapped strike and only obtained that scoring to nudge to just a tiny piece for himself and also as his group.” India ended the next day on 146 for 3 years using skipper Virat Kohli (44 not out) and also Ajinkya Rahane (29 not out) in the crease.
