IND Vs Eng: “Team needs my …” Cheteshwar Pujara made a big announcement about returning to Team India before the tour of England
Cheteshwar Pujara Big Statement on India vs England Test Series: Cheteshwar Pujara has not appeared in the Indian jersey since the World Test Championship Final against Australia at The Oval in June 2023. India initially performed strongly in the third cycle of the World Test Championship, but Team India stumbled in the last two series. India lost 1-3 in the first home against New Zealand and then in Australia in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series, due to which India could not make it to the WTC final. Indian players are currently playing in the IPL and after that they have to visit England. This tour will begin next month. Prior to this tour, Pujara has said that if Team India needs him, he is ready for it.
Cheteshwar Pujara told Boria Majumdar on ‘backstage with Boria’ before the five -Test series against England, “If the team needs and I get a chance, I am ready for my side. I am working on my physical fitness, performing well in the country and domestic tournaments. Team India has been very competitive, but I have not lived a single series in England for almost 20 years I would like to give the best and if the team needs me, I will take advantage of the opportunity.
After the Indian Premier League 2025, the Indian team will tour England. Both teams will play a 5 -match Test series starting on June 20. This series will also be a symbol of the beginning of a new World Test Championship cycle for India. Pujara further said about this series, “When someone has been successful at the highest level and has played more than 100 Test matches and still not a part of the team, you continue the hard work that has been the reason behind success. Not getting the opportunity is a big disappointment, but I keep myself ready and inspired due to my love for this game. And I keep myself close to myself because of that love, I keep myself close to the game Get, whether it is domestic or county. “
Cheteshwar Pujara further said, “When you fail, you fail as a team/unit, not because of any one player. Therefore, it is definitely disappointing for me to miss to be a part of the team, as it is for someone else, but I try to take it positively. I try to focus on those things that I try to focus on my best. I keep my performance in India as my inspiration. I always try to play the team.
Pujara scored 402 runs in seven matches and 10 innings at an average of 40.20 in seven matches and 10 innings, playing the Ranji Trophy 2024-25, with a century and half-century and the best score of 234. Since his last match for India, he has performed brilliantly in county cricket for domestic cricket and Sussex. In England, Pujara has scored 870 runs in 16 matches at an average of 29.00, with a century and five fifties and the best score of 132*.
