Poor shots led to Pujara and Rahane’s downfallBoth Cheteshwar Pujara (16) and Ajinkya Rahane (22) were guilty of not converting sedate starts into big scores. The skipper, batting on 143 looks set for his maiden double ton unless a magical delivery gets him out. It now remains to be seen whether the hosts’ decision to hand a debut to offie, Roston Chase would backfire or not. Kumble in all probabilities wants to keep a genuine batsman in Saha until the end to pile up the first innings score. One can definitely wonder why Sunil Narine, plying his trade for Trinbago Knight Riders in Caribbean Premier League wasn’t picked for the side.
