<p>Whenever Arvind Pujara watches his son Cheteshwar bat in a Test match, the doting father in him turns into a coach who is more keen on dissecting his favourite student's game.<br /><br /></p>.<p>"A double hundred in a Test match against Australia is always a special achievement. But I tell Cheteshwar to avoid playing the hook shot. He will tell me that it's a scoring shot but I believe it's a risky one. He got out playing the hook shot," Pujara senior told PTI from his Rajkot residence after his son cracked a double hundred in the ongoing second Test against Australia here yesterday.<br /><br />So what are the shots that he likes his son to play, pat comes the reply, "He is such a good looking player when he is playing within the 'V'."<br /><br />"He doesn't need to play unorthodox shots as he can score loads of runs playing the straight drive, cover drive or on-drive. He can play in that arc throughout the day and he should stick to doing that."<br /><br />The 62-year-old Arvind had played six first-class matches for Saurashtra in the late 70's but his son has more than made it up by being the second fastest Indian to reach 1000 Test runs.<br /><br />"What makes Cheteshwar special is his appetite for big hundreds. If he is not out on a century plus score, he will make sure to carry on the good work on the next day.<br /><br />"That's why he has scored so many double and triple hundreds at the first-class level. Now he is translating that form into Test matches. I am hopeful that he will be able to maintain that consistency level," the former wicketkeeper batsman said.</p>
