India vs Sri Lanka 2017: 2nd Test, 5 talking points

#4 Pujara gives hope for India's overseas challenges

Cheteshwar Pujara revelled yet again, scoring another superb hundred

India have had a long home season before they set out on the tour of the Island Nation. With bigger challenges awaiting them overseas, this series was supposed to be a test for their batsmen, who are known to falter abroad. But with conditions similar to that in India, the batsmen just had to fine tune themselves and they did just that, especially Pujara.

Known as the successor to Rahul Dravid, Pujara dug in for the long haul, put a price on his wicket, and churned out another magnificent ton. His scintillating counter-attacking stand with Rahane was the highlight of the Test match. Given that Pujara possesses acute judgement outside his off-stump and a sound defence, he remains India's biggest hope outside India.
