He is best young talent available to India, who has not got a chance yet to play. Yes, I agree Rahane and Badrinath are equally good. But Pujara has done enough to deserve a place in the Indian team. If the selectors ignore him for too long, he may lose the motivation, and will be another forgotten chapter.

And, to those who say that Pujara is an unknown character, how many had known Sachin Tendulkar before he made his debut?
But Pujara's name is known to most cricket aficionados.
And his technique is as good as Dravid, and is considered to be the next Dravid. This is one reason why I want Dravid to retire ASAP and give way to Pujara.

Asker's Comment:
I agree , Badrinath and Rahane are also good, as Nineteen and sam mentioned but we do need some youngsters in the squad , specially when these experienced players are around , it will be good if youngsters spend some time with legends on international stage.

Thanks to everyone.
"Ron", did you know the age difference between Rahane and Pujara is actually less than an year? So, Pujara is young and Rahane is not? :))

Badri is a spent force TBH. Already almost 30, can't see him breaking into the Indian Test team within 2 years, or till the big 3 continue to play. By then, he'll be 32-33. Pujara, Rahane and Shikhar Dhawan are the future.

I knew about Rahane but i was indicating Badrinath , sorry I should have mentioned it separately lol .I was trying to say we need youngsters who can gain experience with legends like dravid, laxman, Sachin.it is very surprising we have all the talent , but i guess our selectors will make it tough.

It will be very hard for youngsters if all the big guns retire in short interval.
our Bowling is also screwed up these days.
