Ajinkya Rahane Bats With Grit But Fails To Get Big Score Again
Though India vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane has emerged as a strong contender for captaincy after leading India to wins in two out of three Tests in Australia a few months ago, his batting has become a cause of concern for the Indian team.
The Indian team's No.5 batsman has been below par with the bat, averaging 22.54 in 11 innings of seven Test matches that he has played this calendar year. The last time he scored a Test century was back in the second Test against Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in December 2020. It was an innings that helped India script a revival in Australia following the humiliation in the first Test at Adelaide.
