Pujara's legacy: Unmatched

As Team India gear up for the first Test in Perth, former head coach Ravi Shastri believes there is no one quite like Cheteshwar Pujara in the Indian batting ranks.

Pujara has been a rock of the Indian batting set up on the last two successful tours Down Under where he faced 1258 balls in 2018/19 and 928 balls in 2010/21 respectively.

"Don,t compare Pujara with anyone. what he did is outstanding. Many people used to do pooja of Pujara. Anyway, now he is out of the dressing room and so am I. when you look at this team, KL Rahul can play long innings. He is not a first timer, this is his third tour. He has the game to play a long innings," Shastri added.
