Adapting to Australian conditions and the bouncy Adelaide pitch quickly was the key to Cheteshwar Pujara's success against the Australians, reckoned former India all-rounder Karsan Ghavri. One-drop batsman Pujara's classy 123 helped India reach a respectable 250 for nine yesterday.

"The other players were struggling, but Pujara knew how to cope with the green, bouncy wicket. He makes adjustments quicker than others. This ton is definitely one of his best knocks," said Ghavri, who like Pujara, was born in Rajkot.
