Dravid was very stylish and I liked his stands, defending, cover drives, square cuts , late cuts. Straight drives, leg glance,  pull shots.. almost the entire range... this is exactly  what I was saying .. I like watching Test cricket .. I dont care if there are periods of low scoring and good contest... Just pujara that looks bad doing what others dont look bad doing... 

 

Pujara is definitely  the most boring looking Indian batsman in my recent memory  and  not like he is averaging like Smith or something... 

Pujara doesn’t need to look good. He won us a series in Australia which many pretty players couldn’t. One of the best ever from India  no matter what people say.

Dravid dominated NZ in NZ. There was an article they wrote  with a title Dravid is more stylish than Tendulkar at that time.  Made twin centuries in one test.

At least with Pujara you know the effort won’t be lacking. He is boring and ugly to watch but very rarely he throws away his wicket. He is 6 off 47 and struggling, but he is gritty and the scoring rate won’t bother him. Besides bowling he is one reason we won in Aus.
 

Right now, they need to go play out till tea with no loss of wickets.

But he has to find a different way to handle these short stuffs. He is fending. Unlike AUstralia where the ball fell right there on the crease. Here it just balloons.

I would not have hope if I were you. I’d imagine the worst and sleep. If we are still batting, thank the luck and repeat the cycle 

Certainly doing better than the first innings. Hopefully Captain Bozo lives up to his bat.

Failing here in this innings is unpardonable.  Don’t care if he scores 5-6 200s in India, scoring a fighting 100 here would hold more value. Knowing captain clown, he is bound to fail here. Doesn’t have the fight in his tummy.

So many comments about pujaras technique.. these kiwis are really irritating. Criticizing the only guy who has the best technique in Indian team. Imagine Manjrekar discussing Williamson’s technique when they tour India.

It is almost like they missed his centuries in Australia. Lack of knowledge?
