We have that experience and a team which can dominate overseas: Pujara

INDIA BATSMAN Cheteshwar Pujara is confident about their chances in the upcoming three-match Test series against South Africa, starting January 5.

The Indian batting mainstay highlighted that most of the players in the squad have the experience of playing on South African tracks. As reported by IANS, the Saurashtra-lad said that his men know the game and the conditions,

“Most of our players have been here before. I have been here in 2010/11 and 2013/14. It is about knowing your game and knowing the conditions. When you have played on such pitches, you know what you want to do as a batsman and as a team.”

Pujara believes that the Indian bowling attack is better than it has been on previous tours.

“They are all quick, so we have that advantage this time. Our fast bowlers have bowled well even in Indian conditions when there was not much assistance from the wicket. They picked up wickets on flat tracks, against Australia.”

The 29-year-old added that his team is not chasing records.

“When you start winning, records come automatically. We have never spoken about records. We have that opportunity to be a great side, if we do well here, in England, and Australia. We have that experience and a team which can dominate overseas. If we do that, this will be one of the best Indian teams.”
