Cheteshwar Pujara Excited To Be Back Among Runs, Says Hard Work 'Paying Off'

Senior India Test batter Cheteshwar Pujara is excited to be back among runs with a century in his county season-opener for Sussex and said things that he's been working on are "paying off". By his standards, the India No. 3 had a lacklustre outing against Australia in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, scoring just one half-century in four Tests. "Things which I've been working on is paying off," Pujara said after his 163-ball 115, his sixth hundred for Sussex.

Mumbai Indians Predicted XI vs Chennai Super Kings, IPL 2023: Will Rohit Sharma And Co Make Any Change To Their Side?

Mumbai Indians will be squaring off Chennai Super Kings in their upcoming IPL 2023 match on Saturday at the Wankhede Stadium. The five-time champions began their campaign on a forgetful note as they faced a eight-wicket defeat against Royal Challengers Bangalore. During the campaign opener, MI faced an initial loss of wickets as the top order miserably failed to score. Later, Tilak Varma played an unbeaten knock of 84 off 46 balls and guided his side to a total of 171/7 in 20 overs. However, the bowlers failed to capitalise on the big score as RCB openers Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli took their side to a comfortable win.

Saturday Night Fever: It's Rohit Sharma's Flair vs MS Dhoni's Acumen As MI Lock Horns With CSK

Rohit Sharma will like to get his act together both as a batter as well as skipper, when his star-studded Mumbai Indians take on an astute Mahendra Singh Dhoni's Chennai Super Kings in what could be safely billed as a Saturday night IPL blockbuster. Rested well for a week after their their crushing loss against RCB in season-opener, Mumbai Indians will certainly be under additional pressure in front of their passionate home fans here at the Wankhede Stadium. More so, given how ruthlessly they were blown away by Royal Challengers Bangalore in a one-sided game with Virat Kohli taking the MI attack to cleaners.

Delhi Capitals Predicted XI vs Rajasthan Royals, IPL 2023: Who Will Take Mitchell Marsh's Place?

Eyeing their first win of the season, the David Warner-led Delhi Capitals take on Sanju Samson's Rajasthan Royals in an Indian Premier League (IPL) match at the Barsapara Stadium in Guwahati. DC lost to Lucknow Super Giants by 50 runs in their first game, before going down against Gujarat Titans at home earlier this week. Already without the services of Rishabh Pant, DC will miss the presence of star all-rounder Mitchell Marsh who has flown back to Australia for a week for his wedding. DC's batting has been battered and bruised by raw pace in back-to-back matches, which is likely to find some breathing space on a featherbed in Guwahati.
