LONDON: Indian batting stalwart Cheteshwar Pujara will have to wait until next week to make his county debut for Sussex, as delays in issuing his visa have meant he will not be available for the first LV= Insurance County Championship match of the season.
Sussex performance director, Keith Greenfield said on the issue of the delay in the visa that given the current global scenario, it was getting tough to get foreign players into England.
"Securing overseas players has been tremendously difficult in the current climate. We renegotiated the initial Cheteshwar Pujara contract so he could return for more County Championship and Royal London Cup matches, and this subsequently changed the visa requirements," said Greenfield late on Monday.
