00:00328 runs in this series the most out of all the batsmen in this test series
00:07Pujara
00:11more runs
00:14more outside edge than out of the middle but it's going to get to the boundary
00:17nice quick outfield here on day one at sydney at the end of the nine overs one
00:23for 35 india
00:34just a slight hint of away movement being a little bit of swing yeah that's perfect
00:40you can't be disheartened as a bowler seeing that go away for four
00:45oh that's through Pujara patty cummins is up slips are enjoying it now will they review
00:53the
00:59okay can have the elixir hotspot the result of this can be matched
01:03it's obscured so i'll need the rts please
01:08just rock and roll that when it goes past
01:13i have a flat line when it goes past the bat and clipping the trousers i'll go back to richard on
01:18field nothing on the bat well done
01:23the pants
01:25oh gee that is a good delivery from pat cummins
01:29just went the other way the one that beat the inside edge
01:32was close to that inside this one goes the other way
01:35it's okay and he evades that one with a lot of authority
01:45good use of the feet from pajara couldn't penetrate the onside field so he managed to get it
01:51just wide of meat off four runs two for 138
01:59that's a good shot it's a really good shot footwork's often about getting to the pitch of the ball
02:04sometimes it's about getting back and ever so often he'll play a shot like this
02:08it's a good shot didn't look to be that short but pajara
02:13that bottom hand he swooped on it quick outfield here at the scg
02:19just held up off the pitch so he watched it closely it might have hit
02:25yeah when you try to go quick you hold the ball too tight sometimes it's just
02:29in the middle of the pitch it's set up 50 to pajara
02:32two centuries and a 50 now it's been a wonderful series for him he's just been the rock he's the
02:39foundation isn't it his interior design is around everywhere but he's is the rock he's the foundation
02:44he's rock solid isn't he pajara tremendous player he's not pretty to watch but he gets the job done for
02:49the indian team yes two centuries and two fifties
02:57short again that'll be four more
02:58so unfortunately just dragged a couple down
03:05he's trying to ball too quick i think well it's over 92
03:09case per hour that last ball
03:12and maybe a few nerves back in the test team batting at number three and he's come on just before t
03:18well it's a bit different for him now because he picked up a couple of weeks in the uae
03:21there's a bit of pressure on his bowling now whereas in the uae it was just everything was a bonus now
03:26he's in the team to bowl a few overs different pressure it's not going to be easy for him his
03:30batting and bowling averages he'd prefer them to be the other way around
03:33shot again it's not working here for labus kakhni three boundaries in the over 12 of it it's 173 for two
03:47and pujara after what 132 deliveries of denial suddenly helps himself with the dessert on offer
03:58yeah quality player and just his temperament his timing he's in no rush i guess that's what test
04:05creek it's all about you need a bad time set the foundation up for your team watches the ball very
04:12closely but he's got all the shots and he wants to pull them out and play shots right around the ground
04:21understands that when he gets 50 his team are going to get a decent score
04:25the other thing too gents is that when he goes at the bat they can actually sit back and just relax
04:29a little bit take a bit of a deep breath okay pujara's at the crease we are fine small half chances that
04:36haven't gone their way go another bounty to the leg side just too short from line pujara has not
04:46wanted to miss out on anything short oh that's a good shot that'll be four i reckon good use of the feet
05:00excellent shot just once again nathan lion a bit straight
05:05once again same shot that'll be four again you see that footwork at the ball
05:09putting pressure on line excellent batting
05:16and that's the key if you're going with nathan lion swing uh spin the right hander he doesn't like that
05:21you know and and that's why he always has the long on he has the middle the the mid on for pujara
05:27but he's controlling these on drives as you say by going straight at at the ball so the ball is the
05:32feet fantastic risks take four so lions a fraction straight good use the feet running at the ball for
05:40any young boy or girl out there remember if you want to use your feet run at the ball
05:47needs to get it right here again that's welcome to the crease mitchell stark it's another four
05:52four to pajara poor way to start
05:58put away nicely that is beautifully played he waited on it crunched it to the fence
06:08with this field and this around the wiki you got nowhere to go really i mean you've got a fine line
06:13as a left armor because you're fraction wide you're doing that and if you're fraction full you're doing
06:17that well mitchell stark can't really bowl for this field mitchell stark's one of those wild cards
06:22he'll come in and get you two or three so have a bit more of a protective field for him a couple
06:26of slips and say let him go mitch all your short stuff bowl your yorkers bowl everything and try and
06:32get us a wiki jar works that one fine and gets to the boundary
06:39that is a magnificent hundred from pajara his third of the series this man just bats and bats and bats
06:52and 18th test hundred congratulations oh he's a wall to use the old calypso he's a wall the aussies they
06:59couldn't out pujara at all third hundred what a player plays only one form of the game dedicates
07:07himself completely to his craft lives within his cocoon his world this is just such a tribute to
07:16the kind of person he is the kind of cricket he plays oh do you think they dropped him last year
07:21never happened again i think you can see how much it means to his captain virak koly as well
07:26it's been a special series for pujara and a special hundred he'll be so proud of that as well especially
07:33doing it here at the scg with so much history and tradition there's a famous honors board as well
07:38inside the dressing rooms where his name will go up it's been a wonderful innings once again he's
07:44just still the elderly gentleman who's right it out by hand all the all the hundreds apart from the ones
07:50on the honors board yeah it doesn't show too much emotion that's all you'll get from pujara
08:01199 deliveries 13 fours 317 minutes
08:06and he keeps on churning them out does chiteshwa pujara this time down the ground
08:16lovely strike as they bring up the 250
08:21so pujara now goes to 107 206 deliveries 14 fours
08:26strike rate of 51 nice use of the feet though
08:32could have been bowled a bit more
08:35full toss and that has been dispatched
08:38one bounce four but it is hard for tim payne to give him a few more overs with what we've seen so far
08:43that one is the full bung up
08:51and just didn't quite allow the ball to land try to get a bit more loop on the ball throw the ball up
08:57get it above the eye level and you straight away soon it left the hands
09:03it was going to be dispatched
09:04whipped away and it will fly to the boundary for pujara just straying in line hazelwood
09:15you present the scene for it to shape so that there if it would have shaped it would have hit
09:19probably top of middle and off
09:23high and wide over point britley slaps his knee in cometry frustration disappointment it's a real
09:32warm-up delivery from stark and pujara he's on
09:39didn't like that one being did you no it's just the the start and we've all done it that's the thing
09:44these guys are superstar cricketers wonderful bowlers and done it for a number of years now
09:49certainly mitchell stark he's sitting on 199 test wickets it's just the first one where you try to
09:57make sure your actions good pull down hard and you just don't quite get it right
10:02oh guys lovely stroke good use of the feet this is the field and that dragged in for four and that
10:11brings up a beautiful 150 for pujara it's another milestone that he just ticks off
10:18he has been fantastic isn't he for the indian team just keeps ticking it along does chiteshwar pujara
10:31talks about being in a meditative state when he's out in the middle and batting it is extreme conditions
10:37it's very humid about 90 percent it's about 35 degrees and gets another away use of the feet
10:47against the turn all along the carpet before
10:53it's also the hundred run partnership between these two so they just keep stacking them up
10:57chiteshwar pujara it's his seventh score of 150 or more in test cricket
11:04it's nicely cut away by chiteshwar pujara just continues along in his merry way
11:15that's his 20th boundary moves to 165.
11:23yeah tickle fine it's late the night he is getting some turn
11:27just a gentle tickle for four he said that cannot go for four on the first day morning first day
11:34morning the field has stopped that yeah
11:39here's that short one he gets hold of it though
11:42it'll be just the one bounce
11:45but he was on to it in a flash yeah i think he's been waiting for that short one for a while
11:50got a few of those away yesterday and it's just a touch short it's a pretty good batting surface and
11:55when a man's seeing the ball this well he's not going to miss out and he's quick to pounce on this
12:00one sees the length early puts absolutely everything into it i reckon he thought as soon as he hit it
12:08oh that's got to be sick surely the follow-through
12:13catch oh
12:14well
12:16well
12:17husband kawaja
12:20often gets a lot of
12:24catches in that area in this series but that was so close
12:28nearly got it on the second attempt hit his right hand solidly and then just the left hand missed it
12:34yeah caught and bowled skip of the feet from pajara chips it straight back to nathan lyon who
12:45finally dislodges pajara 193 in india six for 418. he hasn't made many mistakes pajara it's about the
12:54first one and he's paid the penalty deserved 200 tremendous innings but well bowled nathan lyon as
13:00you say carry a bit more flight it's stuck in the picture bit inside edge good court involved but
13:05that's a super innings by pajara
