maniac 22,261 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 sentimental and emotional pick but still great to see Pujara getting rewarded for his service. Great guy. Hope he does well even though not banking on it. Not made for this format AuxiliA, nevada and Adamant 2 1 Link to post

ShoonyaSifar 3,593 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 No fan of CSK, Srini or Dhoni but credit to them for this gesture. Maybe too early but this could be beginning of a future role for ChePu as the batting mentor/ coach of CSK and then later a full fledged coaching career. Link to post

I will stick with teams from the west -> Wolves (MI) and the wild wild west (RR) + any future team PS but if Che is playing, maybe can do that when CSK plays other teams Edited February 19 by zen Link to post
zen 11,212 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 On a side note, Che does not need the $s so may be just a satisfaction of not being left out ... as the champion batsman in tests, would have preferred if he played county instead like he tends to do Link to post
Vilander 10,667 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Pujara has a solid game. It would be funny if he does well also scary what that will do to his test game. nevada 1 Link to post

Hopefully he is picked because he is part of a team plan/strategy and not for pure emotional reasons. That would be unfair on some domestic players who played the SMAT and performed. Link to post

I meant I would have preferred ... Che is probably doing it for the satisfaction of not being left out ... but on turning tracks (like they can have in Chennai), he can be among the top performers Link to post
Lone Wolf 1,321 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 I was hoping he'd get a county stint but he hasn't done well there so doesn't matter. Vihari tbh should look for a county contract asap Link to post
The Realist 6,889 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Will he even/ever get on the field? Seems wildly unsuited to T20 cricket with batting approach and is so slow on the field. Will probably be Dhoni's butler or water carrier at best. Link to post
Ankit_sharma03 22,486 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Not a fan of such charity, unless he is a part of some plan. Ill rather have him go play county 50 lacs anyways is not much for an Indian cricketer. nevada and sage 1 1 Link to post
Serpico 1,121 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Hope he gets the games. My younger cousins don't watch tests and don't understand why I hype him so much. Would love to see him pick up fans in other formats too Link to post

sage 1,068 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Sorry but it was a horrible moment. Ruled Pujara out of getting valuable County experience in the run up to an all important tour. Instead he'll just be warming benches. Link to post

Jay 224 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Legendary chepu deserved way more money. Anyway I am sure he got some bonuses for playing a warrior that he is vs Australia. Love Puji. Champion player. Legend. Savage and the true blood sucking Dracula warrior. I actually think he will do well in T20. He is going to surprise you fools. zen 1 Link to post
