IPL 2021: How Rahul Dravid’s advice helped Cheteshwar Pujara adapt to T20 cricket

Cheteshwar Pujara has earned many accolades for his brilliance in the longest format of the game. He has developed an image of a Test specialist batsman but was never considered a go-to player in the limited-overs format.

But in 2021, things seem to have changed as Pujara is getting ready to ply his trade for the Chennai Super Kings in the upcoming edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) which begins on April 9 in Chennai.

 

Ahead of making a comeback in IPL after 7 years, Pujara revealed a piece of major advice he received from former Indian captain Rahul Dravid early on in his career regarding improving his T20 batting.

While speaking to ESPN Cricinfo, Pujara said that there was a time when he was concerned that his performance in Tests may get ‘spoiled’ if he concentrated too much on improving his T20 batting. But the advice from Rahul Dravid helped him changed the perception.
