Cheteshwar Pujara: Yorkshire re-sign India Test batsman
Last updated on .From the section Cricket

Yorkshire have re-signed India's Cheteshwar Pujara, meaning three of the world's top six-ranked Test batsmen will play for the county this summer.
In addition to Pujara, 30, Yorkshire will also field England captain Joe Root and New Zealand's Kane Williamson.
Pujara, who helped Yorkshire win the 2015 County Championship, could play in the Leeds-Bradford MCCU game in April.
"It's an honour for me to play for the same county as Yuvraj Singh and Sachin Tendulkar," he told the club's website.

Pujara, who has also played for Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire, will share overseas duties with New Zealand captain Williamson.
"Each time I've played county cricket it has improved me as a player. That's the plan again in 2018," the number three added.
"I love the passion the people of Yorkshire have for the game and they made me feel very welcome.
"I know quite a few of the players, so I'll just try to play my natural game and score plenty of runs for the club."
India have scheduled a one-off Test against Afghanistan in Bangalore from 14-18 June, meaning Pujara will leave England after the One-Day Cup game at Lancashire on 5 June.
But the batsman will return in time for the away trip to Hampshire in the County Championship on 20 June.
Pujara could also stay on after India's summer Test tour in order to play the final home fixture against Hampshire on 18 September, followed by the trip to New Road to face Worcestershire six days later.

Along with Bairstow, Rashid, Plunkett, Balance, Lyth & Willey all being selected for England in 2017, Yorkshire must feel like a depleted squad at times.
It is about time counties received some form of points compensation for England call ups.
watch out you yorkies were on our way up there in april to continue the battering we gave you lot last season...essex champions...

Careful Essex, England will be after your players, probably get at least one in to carry the drinks. Ideal county team is one with players not quite on the international radar or retired from it.
Rashid, Plunkett, Root, Balance, Barstow, Willey - we should be charging England fees for the amount of times they call up our players or we should be able to defer county games if players are not available.
We have to look abroad because everytime we have a good player England call them up and prevent us from playing them.
One-sided test series with such a home-bias are good for no-one and prove nothing of England's 'world-class' quality or lack of.
Anyway 3 of the top 6 players in the world is great but they won't play in the same side
