'Play like Pujara and Rahane': Ex-India batter's old-school advice amid Test batting chaos

Former India batter Robin Uthappa critiques the MCG Test pitch as seam-friendly but not unplayable, attributing struggles to modern batting's lack of patience. He argues for a reset in expectations, suggesting 250 can be competitive with discipline, citing Pujara and Rahane as examples. Uthappa also lamented Joe Root's struggles, reflecting a broader concern about Test cricket's entertainment over endurance.
