Pujara's ton puts Sussex on top vs Derbyshire

India batter Cheteshwar Pujara's unbeaten 104 helped Sussex extend their first innings lead to 111 runs in their County Championship Division Two match against Derbyshire on Saturday.

Pujara's unbeaten 167-ball knock was studded with 10 fours as he notched his first century of the County season in his third match.

He scored 86 and 44 not out against Gloucestershire and 38 in his only outing against Leicestershire.

Sussex were 357 for 5, riding on Pujara's ton and fifties from Tom Haines (58), Tom Alsop (64) and James Coles (72) in reply to Derbyshire's first innings total of 246 in an away game at the County Ground in Derby.

The right-handed India batter was at the crease with Jack Carson when stumps were drawn.
