Pujara offers advice to struggling Indian batters to counter-attack Mitchell Starc: ‘Make him bowl second and third…’

Hindustan Times  

Veteran India batter Cheteshwar Pujara heaped praise on Australia paceman Mitchell Starc for his impressive show in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Starc has made an impact with the new ball against India in the ongoing series, and his swinging deliveries have caused problems for the top-order batters. Pujara said that when he faced Starc in the last two Test series Down Under, the Indian batters looked confident against him to score runs. Pujara, who has been doing the commentating duties in this series, advised the Indian batters to be cautious against Starc in the first spell and look to target later in the game when the ball gets old.
