Why not think of replacement for Pujara? He is lion at home & mouse abroad. So is Dhavan. Rohit Sharma too tending to be so. But may be tried for a couple of series.

stand straight with one foot gap between your feet,bend down till your head reaches between knees now you seeGuand?that's the size.
There are lots of Pujara loitering in cricket clubs in India but it is hard to find another Dravid. Indian team should find a replacement for Pujara bcoz he is not consistent & dependable at no 3 which is very important position in Test cricket
Rahul was a batsman of a different class, Pujara is no where near to him in temperament,technique and style. Pujara's away records is not at all good because his technique is not suitable on bouncy foreign pitches. But he has promise.

I never said he is useless.All I say is ,Pujara has a long way to go before he can be even compared to Dravid.

ok,enjoice.Saer you not speaking on Dravid like this.Sub continent and overseas averaging above 50. That shows his class.
was a different class all together.After playing 164 tests (286 innings) has an average of 52 which reflects on his consistency and calibre. At this stage, long way to go for Pujara before he can be compared to Dravid.
