Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod]
I don't think anyone mentioned Pujara's retirement news from international cricket.
Indian batter Pujara ends international career
IMO, he is modern day test legend but most of them filed to recognize this or he didn't get the limelight like other players because test format is losing it's value due to the domination of 20/20 especially IPL but he stood like a wall on many times when team needed and there are many performances we can pont out like 2017 Ranchi, 123 in adelaide but the best of all is Gabba (77) when India breached their fortress and don't foget that he took 11 blows in that innings.
If we ever want to show a youngster what Test match temperament looks like, then just point to Pujara. His grit and patience defined an era of Indian Test cricket.
