Cheteshwar Pujara and Rohit Sharma disagree about how Test runs are made. In a Test match, the bowlers typically bowl to their field. Fields are set to test the batsman, to challenge both edges if the conditions permit it, or to kill the scoring. A good ball is one which forces the batsman to hit it to where the fielders are positioned. A bad ball is one which allows the batsman to hit it where there are no fielders. Sometimes, batsmen are good enough to convert a good ball into a bad one. For instance, Pujara steps out to Nathan Lyon and drives him through the covers.
