Coach Ravi Shastri called Cheteshwar Pujara a warrior after the India No. 3 took multiple blows on his body, head and arm during his 211-ball 56 that helped lay a solid platform for the Indian team's three-wicket win in the fourth and final Test at The Gabba on Tuesday."Pujara is the team's warrior. On seeing his performance in Sydney and Brisbane, I told him, 'Pujju you have finished them'," Shastri told reporters.The right-handed batsman's slow run rate had been a topic of debate yet again over the course of the series. However, the gritty half-centuries on the final day of the third and the fourth Tests seem to have shown his importance in the Indian Test setup.Shastri said that the team is not interested in any debates. "I think let the boys enjoy it. Debates can carry on. Not interested in any debates," added Shastri.Captain Ajinkya Rahane too lavished praise on the 32-year-old batsman. "The way Pujara played today regardless of getting many injuries due to bouncers on the head. He didn't bother. His goal was to save the wicket," added Rahane.Pujara himself tweeted and thanked his fans and supporters on what began as a tough tour him as he struggled to get runs."Overcome with emotion and filled with pride. The character and skill shown by the entire squad has been commendable. Moments like these make the countless hours of toil and practice truly worth it. Thank you for all the support and wishes" Pujara tweeted.
