On eve of 100th Test, Cheteshwar Pujara reveals how playing white-ball domestic cricket for Sussex spurred his late-career revival
NEW DELHI: Exactly a year ago, Cheteshwar Pujara's chances of making it to his 100th Test seemed to have diminished drastically when the selectors decided to leave him out for the home series against Sri Lanka. He was at 95 Tests then. On Thursday morning, the eve of the second Test against Australia at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Pujara turned up with a beaming smile after a light optional nets session. The pride of representing India in a Test match for the 100th time was unmistakable.
