Then Pujara came to bat, and given his spectacular performance for Sussex in county cricket recently, expectations were high from him. However, India’s Test specialist failed to come to Leicestershire’s rescue, as he was dismissed for a duck.
In the second delivery of the ninth over, Shami bowled a beautiful in-swinger that caught the inside edge of Pujara’s bat before dislodging the stumps. What was more interesting than the wicket was the celebration.

Shami ran towards his teammate and hugged him, as the players enjoyed the friendly banter between two teammates-turned-opponents. Meanwhile, at the time of writing, the Foxes were struggling at 75/4.
