Pujara last 74 runs came in 27 balls. This is insane hitting even by t20 standards. 
 

100 of 103

174 of 130

Guess Pujara's career being revived here? I think he might go on to play 2 years of test cricket. Unlike Kohli and Rahane he is trying his best.

He was pretty ok playing for kkr and rcb in first few seasons. Actually he could have been the no 4 for us in 2019 wc. Lol we would have won as in sf and final the targets were 240 odd!

True. He was never given any run in ODIs. His list A record was always spectacular. He needed at least 10-15 more matches.

Pujara and Umesh, both seem to be doing really good in One Day tournament. Umesh is the highest wicket taker in this tournament with 15 wickets in 5 matches.

Don't read too much into him beating up lower level domestic opponents.  Its not as if county cricket is swimming with top tier quality - there are just too many county teams and a lot of times with rotation etc you are going to face 2nd XI bowlers that are plate-level Ranji calibre bowlers.  This isn't too different from an Indian batsman from a top 5 Ranji team beating up on "plate" teams like Manipur, Meghalaya etc.

Beating top 6 teams in ranji is a whole another ball game. Top 6 is very good. Yea plate teams are total cans. Many have second jobs etc to support their families in playe level.

tempting but players have to think for their own good for long terms

Its not that these guys will be get huge money, mostly they ll be sold off on base prices . Then they ll be on bench that to for a format in which they have no chance 

County also pays well so go play and rather help ur career get longer. Longer u play better u earn , nyways at max they ll get selected for one season just to be on bench and then next season teams wont show interest 

I keep hearing county pays well?? Is that really true? Average pay is only like a little under 100 k if I am not wrong? Normal people in moderately senior roles can get 100 k in office spaces. 

Manager level get 150 k plus with relative ease going all the way up to 600 700 k if u reach a c suite job. Ofcourse high end companies where you get bonuses and incentives and share plans you can push millions but that's another story. 

 

I dont think county pays all that well given how many games they play in a season.

 

Ipl is the king for money. Want big bucks. Ipl buddyyy.

Aren't the top players playing The Hundred or do the players play both?

I have a feeling this is an MI6 plot to get us to pick Pujara in LOI and get humiliated

As the others have said, its a reflection on quality of bowling then Pujara's new found ability.

If Pujara had not wrecked both his knees years ago he might have been a good ODI bat

Yep, anybody half decent with the white ball is signed up for the hundred.

Got injured doing a sliding stop in the IPL and that was that! Very unfortunate.
