India batter Cheteshwar Pujara is in great form in the ongoing County Championship as he scored his third consecutive century while playing for Sussex in Division 2. Pujara brought up his ton on Day 2 of the ongoing fixture against Durham and was unbeaten at stumps. The last few overs of the day saw Pujara forming a partnership with Pakistan wicketkeeper Mohammad Rizwan and their picture batting together has taken Twitter by storm.
The official handle of County Championship shared the photo of Pujara and Rizwan.
“What a dream partnership @cheteshwar1 @iMRizwanPak,” the handle tweeted.

The picture proved to be a massive hit on social media.
