The game between the Tom Haines-led side and Durham saw Pujara and Rizwan come together to put on a 154-run partnership as well. During the third day of the game, the Indian batter went on to score a magnificent 203 from 334 balls. His knock consisted of 24 boundaries.

He was well supported by Rizwan, who scored 79. Prior to the third day's play on Saturday, Sussex took to Twitter to post a video of the duo on their official Twitter handle. In the clip, they were seemingly discussing something. This was during their training session. However, they weren't audible in the video.

Thus, it was very hard to understand what they were speaking. Nevertheless, several Twitter users were up for the challenge, and decided to decode their conversation. A fan pointed out that Pujara and Rizwan were speaking in either Hindi or Urdu. Several other fans gave their own interpretations, and tried to understand what the two cricketers were trying to speak.
