Pujara did not leave any bowler and punished every bad delivery. His century put India in a good position and the innings were declared. Shubman Gill also scored a century. The two players stitched a key partnership of 254 runs. This took the total leader to over 500 runs and captain KL Rahul declared the innings.
Pujara scored a century back in 2019 when India toured Australiafor the Border Gavaskar trophy. Chateshwar Pujara made valuable contributions to the team in winning the trophy and he scored 600 runs including three tons. He also scored a double-century. Virat Kohli was the skipper of the team and India defeated Australia to lift the trophy. The trophy win was the first Test series win against Australia in Australia. It took over three years for Pujara to score a century again.
