Vihari believes Pujara was biggest reason behind India's Test wins in Aus

Hanuma Vihari, part of India's back to back series wins in Australia, reckons the services of veteran batter Cheteshwar Pujara will be be dearly missed when the team aims for a hat-trick Down Under later this year.

"Pujara will a big miss. he was the backbone of the batting line-up in the last two series for Team India.
