Cheteshwar Pujara

On his third trip to South Africa, Indian middle order mainstay Cheteshwar Pujara on Tuesday advised his team's batsmen to "leave the ball well" when the Virat Kohli-led side takes the field in the first Test against South Africa here from Friday. "It is always important to leave the ball well, especially overseas. Once we move out of India, there is enough bounce on the pitch and that's the reason why one should be able to leave the ball," Pujara said after the team's practice session here. "Most of our players have been here before. I have been here in 2010/11 and 2013/14. It is about knowing your game and knowing the conditions.
