If Team Is Losing At Home, It Suggests That Something Else Is Wrong, Says Pujara
New Delhi: Former India batter Cheteshwar Pujara feels that ‘something else is wrong’ in the Indian team following their disappointing 30-run loss against South Africa at Eden Gardens on Sunday.
After India crumbled to 93 all out in the fourth innings while chasing 123, Pujara criticised the batters’ approach on a surface offering variable bounce and turn from the very first day, though he added that the responsibility for the defeat didn’t rest solely with them.
"I don’t agree with the view that India’s defeat at home can be attributed to a transitional phase. While it’s understandable to face setbacks abroad during a transition period, the current Indian side possesses ample talent and strong first-class records—players like Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Washington Sundar, and Shubman Gill have all proven themselves. If the team is losing in home conditions despite this, it suggests that something else is wrong,” the veteran batter said on JioStar.
