Hope all of us understand significance of Pujara, Pant and Ashwin: Sourav Ganguly

1 min read

BCCI President Sourav Ganguly on Monday lauded the efforts of Cheteshwar Pujara, Rishabh Pant and Ravichandran Ashwin in saving the third Test towards Australia and urged the Indian staff to go for a collection win.
The trio of Pujara, Pant and Ashwin navigated by way of a hostile Australian bowling assault on the ultimate day to grab a exceptional draw towards the house staff.
“Hope all of us realise the importance of Pujara, Pant and Ashwin in cricket teams…batting at 3 in test cricket against quality bowling is not always hitting through the line ..almost 400 test wickets don’t come just like that,” Ganguly tweeted.
“..well fought India..time to win the series @bcci,” he wrote.
Chasing a herculean goal of 407, Pant (97) and Pujara (77) performed brilliantly to offer India hope of an unlikely win. After the dismissal of the duo, Ashwin (39 not out off 128 balls) and Hanuma Vihari (23 not out off 161) noticed by way of the final session to save lots of the Test and pull off a draw.
The collection is locked at 1-1 going into the fourth and ultimate Test in Brisbane, beginning Friday.
