Cheteshwar Pujara wore us down- Tim Paine

Recalling the 2020-21 series in The Grade Cricketer Podcast, Paine was quoted as saying by India Today:

“What I do remember, a lot of people talk about Rishabh Pant in the last series in Australia, but the guy who won them the series was Pujara. He wore us down, he wore our fast bowlers down. He kept getting hit on the body, but he kept getting up. There is still place for that in Test cricket,”

The veteran right-hander was also the Player of the Series in India’s 2-1 triumph in the 2018-19 Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia.

“Shami is going to be a huge difference, Bumrah, there is so much on his shoulders. If he gets hurt, then it’s curtains for me,” Paine said in the same interaction.
