Pujara with his Sound Tecnhique & good batting can be a good No. 4 for India ODI Team, building into the next World Cup in Australia in 2015. If he is inducted now then he would have atleast 2 and half yrs atleast to work his way into ODI Team for World Cup. Also Unmukt Chand, the Talented U-19 Worldcup winning captain shud be inducted in the ODI Team as well. These are players who are the Future of Team India. Last but not the Least Virat Kohli should be handed over the ODI Captaincy right away. He is the best player to Lead ODI Team in 2015 World Cup in Australia.
Fantastic & sensible knock by Pujara. Hats off to him. Now that Virat & Pujara have replaced Laxman & Dravid fairly successfully. This shows that there is no dearth of talent in Indian cricket. Will Mr Tendulkar, at least now make way for new talent. If so, when?

Sachin Tendulkar will play alongside his son Arjun Tendulkar and score his 150th 100 in cricket. It is possible that the Kohli's , Pujara's of the word would have retired by then

Yes,Sir Sachin has started middling the ball and it's just a matter of TIME before he plays a big innings.

He will play for another 7 years because yesterday Kapil Dev wanted him to do so and how can you refuse him....
Gavaskar, for that matter all cricketing experts have praises when an individual is performing well; Poojara always had hid basics right, it was just a matter of getting the right oppurtunity and now Team India needs to stick with him for some time and give him ample oppurtunity to showcase his talent in limited overs as well.

When did Rohit played a test match.Raina is not even able to score for his state side in Ranji.Like it or not,he is there in the team b'cos of Dhoni & Srinivasan
The Indian selectors often go by the score book and averages. Pujara's class, at least on Indian pitches was for everyone to see. I remeber a series against Australia when Pujara showed his class. In a second innings, he scored at a fast clip. Why is Gavaskar talking about his basics now?
