Hove, Aug 17 (Ians) Cheteshwar Pujara has been known widely for his classical batting exploits and steely defence in Test cricket. But of late, the right-handed batter has been showing what he is capable of with his current run for English county side Sussex in the ongoing Royal London One-Day Cup.
In five matches, Pujara has made 367 runs at an average of 91.75 and strike-rate of 120.72, becoming the second-highest run-scorer in the competition. Moreover, two of his centuries have arrived in successive matches.
Pujara scored a 79-ball 107 against Warwickshire on Friday. He also hit 22 runs off the 45th over, but he was unable to take his side over the line. On Sunday, as Sussex’s captain, Pujara smashed a fantastic 174 off 131 balls against Surrey.
With his astonishing knock laced with 20 fours and five sixes, Pujara now holds the record for the highest-ever score made by a Sussex batter in List A cricket competition in the United Kingdom,...
