“May this be your best year” – Cheteshwar Pujara’s wife Puja Pabari shares never-seen-before pictures on his 35th birthday
Cheteshwar Pujara’s wife, Puja Pabari, wished her husband on his 35th birthday. Taking to Instagram, she shared never-seen-before pictures with a special message.
She captioned the post:
“Happy Birthday @cheteshwar_pujara. Thank you for being my human shield when I am confronted or awkward; and using me as your shield the minute you spot any rodents 😂.”
She added:
“This past year you have taught me to prioritize myself even if it came at the cost of you stretching yourself more than you already do. May this be your best year yet ❤️”
Pujara has been spending quality time with his family following the conclusion of the two-Test series in Bangladesh last month. Team India clinched that Test series 2-0.
Cricket icon Sachin Tendulkar also posted a special birthday greeting for Pujara. He wrote on Twitter:
“Not all five fingers are the same. Not every Test batsman needs to be a big hitter. An aggressive batting lineup should also be able to defend well. Pujara, you have been a rock in India’s batting lineup. Stay unique, stay you! Happy birthday.”
