Last month, the wicket-keeper batter had also praised Pujara, saying, “He is a very nice and loving guy. And his concentration and focus too… If you get a chance to learn something, you should do it.”
Rizwan will be representing the national side in the three-match ODI series against West Indies scheduled on June 8, 10, and 12 in Multan. In the year 2021, he enjoyed a lot of success with the bat and was named men’s T20I player of the year.
On the other hand, Pujara has been recalled to the side for the one-off Test against England after scoring two double hundreds in five games. He was earlier dropped from the team for the Test series against Sri Lanka.
