Cheteshwar Pujara had a horrible outing against New Zealand in the first innings of the Mumbai Test. Batting at number 3, the right-hand batter was dismissed by left-arm spinner Ajaz Patel for a 5-ball duck. But in the second innings, he was promoted up the order. He came in as an opener alongside Mayank Agarwal and played with more confidence and self-belief.

IND vs NZ, 2nd Test: Here's Why Cheteshwar Pujara Opened With Mayank Agarwal in 2nd Innings

Why did Pujara opened in the 2nd innings?

Pujara was promoted as an opening batsman on Saturday after Shubman Gill didn’t take the field due to an elbow injury that he picked up while fielding in the first innings. Taking to its official Twitter handle, the BCCI informed that the youngster didn’t recover by the time the hosts decided to bat instead of enforce a follow-on.

“Shubman Gill suffered a blow to his right elbow while fielding in the first innings. He has not recovered completely and hence not taken the field as a precautionary measure,” wrote the BCCI.

New Zealand suffered a horrendous batting collapse after Ajaz Patel picked up a 10-wicket haul. In reply to India’s 325, the visitors were bundled out for 62, which is now the lowest team total in Test cricket in India.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
