The second Test match India vsEngland is turning into more interesting one than the first.
India can be proud of finding a dependable batsman who is likekly to keep up her Prestige for a long time.
Poojara played with maximum patience,caution&control to lift India &rescue her from a possible disaster!
During his day he committed just one minor error when he was at 93 trying for a second run which wasnt there.But he realised it on time &retrieved his crease before England fielders could inflict a damage.
At one stage India was in a desperates situation at 119/5 ,the leading batsmen became victims of Momte Panesar ,Swann&Anderson.
What Sunil Gavaskar, the onetime Great batsman&Skipper of Undia,said was about to turn out to be true,Poojara &Capt Dhoni rose to the occasion &avoided what could have been a total disaster.
Gavaskar had said the decision to bat in a spinning wicket might backfire.
England could not overcome the resistacnce caused initially by Poojara&Dhoni &later on by ASWIN &pOOJARA.The final score at stumps was a healthy score of 266/6 which itself more than enough to rattle England with 3 specialist Spinners at the disposal of India in a spinfriendly wicket. at Wankhede,Mumbai.
Poojara made 114/279 Balls&Aswin's healthy contribution was 60 from 69 balls/
Thejeswar Poojara carried the bat in both innings of First tst&on the first daty of Second Test.
In total without getting out he has scored 2 centuries thereby contributing 379 Runs from 3 inningsr emaining all the way not out.Avery rare phenomenon he could be proud of himself.
What a neat&clean century was today's!!!
England could not find any use from their most recognised Pacer Stuart Broad who bowled 12 overs in 4 spells without success.
The star of the day Thejeswar Poojara &the hero of the Day Aswin who played second fiddle to his partner with 60 glorious runs.
4more days left,England wiil have to sweat a lot to avoid a second defeat.
