Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting has been bold with his opinions ahead of the highly-anticipated Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test series between India and Australia, and has now criticised India's decision to not include Cheteshwar Pujara in the Test squad. Pujara - a man who has nearly 2,000 runs against Australia at an average of nearly 50 - was not included for the series, having been dropped from the Indian Test squad ever since the World Test Championship (WTC) 2023 Final.

KL Rahul Achieves Big Feat With 26-Run Knock vs Australia In Perth Test
