World can learn to play Test cricket from Pujara: Harbhajan Singh

TIL Desk Sports/ Former India spinner Harbhajan Singh singles out Cheteshwar Pujara’s contribution as the biggest factor in India’s maiden Test series triumph in Australia. “Australia had a good attack, but they were not able to find a solution for Pujara. He just stood there and grinded them out. He left them completely clueless and deflated.

His batting was majorly responsible for India’s victory. His batting is a lesson for others,” Harbhajan said. Pujara was the highest run-scorer in the series with 521 runs in the four Tests. All his three centuries were match-winning ones.

“Pujara showed the way with the bat. He showed what Test cricket is all about, it is not about hitting the ball and looking fancy out in the middle, it is about showing grit. It is about battling against some tough spells, wearing out the bowlers by batting out session by session.”

“This saying goes perfectly for Pujara ‘The will is bigger than skill’ and I salute him for his brave batting in Australia,” declares Bhajji who has a tally of 417 wickets in 103 Tests.
