The ever-green debate on India Test mainstay Cheteshwar Puraja's strike rate continues to rage on. This time, it is sparked by former Australia leg-spinner Brad Hogg, who believes that youngster Prithvi Shaw can be Pujara's replacement at the No.3 spot. While the view is yet to garner strong responses, it has already sparked one from Pakistan cricketer Salman Butt. Southpaw Butt further added that while Shaw might be an "outstanding talent" but India already have someone to play long innings in Tests. Shaw may be an outstanding talent and could come up with something spectacular to surprise everyone," said Butt.
