Dravid by a good margin. 

 

Pujara did have to face tougher pitches but dravid still beats him as easily the better batsman

Look at the averages too - Pujara 43 odd in tests while Dravid was 52 odd in tests.

 

Dravid played against Walsh/Ambrose/Donald/Pollock/Wasim/Shoaib/McGrath/Gillespie/Lee/Warne/Muralitharan and now check the bowling vs Pujara. Except for Starc/Cummins/Haze/Rabada (Dravid played peak Steyn)... its mostly riff raff.

Dravid was better, but I don't think it's fair to compare averages of two different generations. Because batting/bowling averages and the percentage of drawn matches in the last 15 years have been much lower than before, indicating tougher pitches to bat on.

Pujara had a memorable 153 against peak Steyn and Philander (#1 and #2 in the world).

Blind people need averages and stats to compare Dravid and Pujara. 

 

Anyone who has watched enough of both players knows who is the better batsman.
