Bought for Rs 50 lakh at the IPL 2021 auction, Cheteshwar Pujara also couldn’t find a place in CSK’s settled eleven. Uthappa was chosen to replace Raina when the left-hander got injured, and he justified the franchise’s trust with two blazing knocks in the playoffs.
India’s Test specialist, Cheteshwar Pujara’s last IPL game still remains way back in 2014 when he was with Punjab, but he’d be happy to claim his maiden IPL trophy with CSK.
