Pujara is not playing IPL this year, but during this time he is not wasting time, instead he has started preparing for the WTC final. He has now gone on to play county cricket. There he is playing for Sussex. Not only this, Steve Smith, one of Australia’s veteran star players, will also be seen playing for this team. He will also be seen somewhere preparing for the World Test Championship. The final match will be played in The Over of England and before that these players are getting familiar with the weather, conditions and pitch by playing county.

Cheteshwar Pujara has scored two centuries in three matches for Sussex in the county
Cheteshwar Pujara scored 115 and 35 for Sussex on 6 April, followed by two short innings of 18 and 13 with the bat in the second match. And on April 27, he played a brilliant century innings of 151 runs. It makes sense that he is in good form at the moment and if he continues this form in the final of the World Test Championship, it will be amazing. Steve Smith is also following the same path now. He has also not been bought by any team in this year’s IPL, so now he is turning to county cricket in England. Cheteshwar Pujara and Steve Smith will play from the same team. The interesting thing is that Smith will play under Pujara’s captaincy. Pujara is the captain of Sussex.
