In the ongoing Sydney Test between India and Australia, Cheteshwar Pujara, who won the man of the series award in Australia back in 2018-19, scored 50 off 176 balls at a strike rate of 28.41 in the first innings on Saturday as the Australia bowlers kept a very tight and disciplined line. Pujara, who is often hailed as the modern-day Dravid, scored his slowest ever fifty in the longest format of the game.
However, the 32-year-old's approach during India's first innings of the India vs Australia 3rd Test was questioned by a lot of fans on social media and they started remembering former Indian batsman Rahul Dravid. They also argued that while Dravid too possessed a low strike rate in Tests and played numerous amount of deliveries, he was India's 'consummate' stroke makers who looked to score runs even off very good deliveries.
