Chetehwar Pujara makes a colossal revelation on the telephone call from Gautam Gambir for the Engine Tests
Team India’s head coach Gautam Gambir would have pressure for the inclusion of Chetehwar Pujara in the Squad for the Australia tour, but the selection committee rejected the idea. Pujara confirmed that he had not received any communication from Gambir about his return to the Indian team.
Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma announced their Test Cricket retirement before the tour in England. The Indian team will play the five -game test series. Questions have been raised on the question of whether the selectors should have considered Cheteshwar Pujara or Ajinkya Rahane as a stop arrangement.
No, not yet – Chetehwar Pujara on the call from Gautam Gambir
In a recent interview, Cheteshwar Pujara was asked if Gautam Gambhir had contacted him about the next tour in England. Pujara said he had not received any call or communication from Gambir before the team’s selection meeting.
Your daily cricket dose!
“No, not yet,” said Pujara to Lallantop when asked, “Have you ever received a Gambir phone call?”
India will visit England in June for a series of five-game tests in the ICC World Championship Cycle (WTC) 2025-27. Pujara played a test for the last time in the WTC final in 2023 against Australia, but has not been part of the team since then.
I don’t know if they will take me or not – Cheteshwar Pujara
The veteran drummer said he was ready to return to the Indian team as a first -rate drummer if he had the opportunity. He said it would be an honor to represent the country again. Pujara added that he was ready and eager to contribute.
“I am ready. I do not know if they will take me or not. But if I have the opportunity, yes, it will be an honor to represent the country again. As a cricket player, you always feel that as long as you are in good shape, as long as you contribute, and if I am happier to be part of the domestic cricket, and I prepare well,” Pujara said.
Maybe I could contribute to the team – Chetehwar Pujara
When he was asked rumors that Gautam Gambir wanted him to be included for the Australian tour, Chetehwar Pujara avoided commenting on the selection process. Pujara said he could have contributed to the team if she had the opportunity.
“Listen, I can’t say much about the team’s selection. But I had a lot of hope that if I have a chance in Australia, I would be able to contribute to the team. Because the way my history is on Australian soil, I had the confidence that if I have a chance, I could be able to contribute to the team,” said Pujara.
Pujara was successful in Australia during Tours in India in 2018-2019 and 2010-21, marking 521 and 271 respectively. However, its record in England is modest, with 806 points at an average of 31 on 14 test games.
