India vs Australia, Sydney Test: Cheteshwar Pujara scores slowest Test fifty

The Hindu  

India batsman Cheteshwar Pujara on Saturday scored his slowest fifty in Test cricket off 174 deliveries against Australia in the third Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series. His previous slowest half-century came off 173 balls in a winning cause against South Africa in the first innings of the Johannesburg Test in January 2018. On the third day of the Sydney Test, Pujara solidly defended against the second new ball and Australia pace trio of Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood. He’s still there, he is doing a tremendous job,” said Australia great Shane Warne reacting to Pujara's innings.
