Cheteshwar Pujara Flags Issues Over Team India's Bowling Depth before Boxing Day Test

Cheteshwar Pujara has analyzed Team India's performance with the ball, and he has expressed his concern over the bowling depth in the Border Gavaskar Trophy. He pointed out that only Jasprit Bumrah  has consistently delivered strong performances, leaving an impression with every bowling spell. The batting has also appeared to have improved, he added.

“My first biggest question and slight reason for concern is that the Indian bowling is looking slightly weak. The batting has improved a little. The top five have not batted well but the middle order and lower-middle order have done that,” Cheteshwar Pujara said during an appearance on Star Sports.
