Cheteshwar Pujara is celebrating his 33rd birthday on January 25. Virat Kohli, R Ashwin, Yuvraj Singh and other cricketers wished Pujara on his special day.
The new wall of Indian cricket, Cheteshwar Pujara is celebrating his birthday on 25th January. The dependable batsman turned 33. He just became the 11th Indian player to score more than 6000 runs in Test cricket. Pujara looks good to break some more milestones, especially in Test cricket. The innings he played in the Sydney as well as the Gabba Test and the amount of time he spent at the batting crease was something that every youngster should learn from. He even took a lot of body blows while tackling the bouncers from Cummins and co.
