Cheteshwar Pujara’s Test Record: The Saurashtra batsman has gone through ups and downs in his career but his record remains highly impressive. He has 18 Test hundreds and has played his part in many famous victories.
Cheteshwar Pujara’s ODI Record: Despite great expectations from him and a very impressive List A record, Pujara’s ODI career didn’t take off. He was given the opportunity during India’s ODI series in Zimbabwe in 2013 and during the series in Bangladesh in 2014 but no great result came out of it.
Cheteshwar Pujara’s IPL Record: Pujara first played IPL in 2010 and made appearances during the following seasons also. But he was never comfortable in this format. Just when everyone had given up on his limited-overs career and thought he would remain a Test specialist, he has been bought by Chennai Super Kings. Could this mark a new beginning in Pujara’s career.
