Cheteshwar Pujara's tweet ignited a firestorm of speculation among Chennai Super Kings fans.
Cheteshwar Pujara ignited a firestorm of speculation among Chennai Super Kings fans with a recent tweet that read- "#SupperKings looking forward to joining you guys this season!" This has fans wondering if Pujara is set for a sensational return to the yellow jersey in IPL 2024.
The tweet has certainly sparked excitement as Pujara was part of the CSK squad in IPL 2021, bought at his base price of ₹50 lakh. However, he didn't get a single game. CSK released him after that season. It remains to be seen if Pujara is hinting at a renewed role with CSK this year. There are two possibilities. One that Pujara's experience and temperament could be valuable additions to the CSK coaching staff. Secondly, while less likely given the team's current batting depth, Pujara could get another shot as a player.
CSK themselves haven't commented on the tweet, leaving the question unanswered. One thing's for sure- Pujara has stirred the pot, and CSK fans will be eagerly waiting for further developments.
Pujara back at Sussex!
Pujara is currently in England, embarking on his third stint with Sussex County Cricket Club in the County Championship. This extended commitment highlights the importance Pujara places on refining his technique and form outside the international arena.
Pujara's impact on Sussex has been undeniable. He's become a vital cog in their batting order, amassing an impressive tally of runs in the last couple of seasons. Historically, strong county performances have served Pujara well, often preceding successful returns to the Indian test team. Sussex fans are undoubtedly hoping this trend continues, with Pujara's consistent form offering a significant boost to their title aspirations.
Having been dropped from the Test side, he responded emphatically in the Ranji Trophy, India's premier domestic tournament. There, he displayed his characteristic grit with some fine knocks which served as a strong reminder of Pujara's capabilities and reignited hopes for a potential test team comeback.
