‘You Don’t Want To Mess Up’: Pujara Admits To Nerves While Ringing Bell On Day 3 At Lord’s
BBC Test Match Special: India batter Cheteshwar Pujara began proceedings on Day 3 of the Lord’s Test by ringing the famed bell and admitted he felt nervous due to the amount of eyeballs that are on you while performing the storied tradition. Pujara followed in the footsteps of Sachin Tendulkar after the former India great rang the bell on Day 1 of the third Test. It was the first time Tendulkar had the honour of doing so.
“I was a little nervous ringing the bell this morning because everyone is looking at you and you don't want to mess up,” said Pujara on BBC Test Match Special.
The ringing of the bell by cricketing legends outside the bowlers’ bar at the Lord’s is a tradition that started in 2007 and has been previously carried out by legendary Indian players like Sunil Gavaskar, Sourav Ganguly, and Rahul Dravid.
