The former Australian left-arm wrist spinner feels that although Cheteshwar Pujara’s low strike-rate was effective against Australia Down Under, the ball will keep on swinging in England for a longer period of time. Brad Hogg wants Pujara to be more proactive while batting in these tough conditions.
In a video on his YouTube channel, Brad Hogg explained how the batsmen at the other end might feel the pressure if Cheteshwar Pujara is unable to bat with freedom.
Cheteshwar Pujara will be key in wearing down England bowlers: Brad Hogg
Although Cheteshwar Pujara struggled in the first innings of the World Test Championship final against New Zealand, Brad Hogg feels his ability to tire down the opposition bowlers will be key against England.
Cheteshwar Pujara was effective in tiring down Australian bowlers over the last two Test series and was instrumental in helping India emerge victorious. With the likes of Stuart Broad and James Anderson in their late 30s, Hogg reckons Pujara’s ability to bat long will once again be crucial for India in their long series.
