I still want to play Test cricket, I like to play Test cricket. At this time, I am enjoying my cricket. I have come here for a few days, so I have brought my trainer and training clothes so that I can keep myself fit. Our domestic season is starting, so preparations have just started.
Rahane made a statement on selectives
Rahane told here that he had tried to talk to the selectors when he dropped from the team. They said,
I focus on things that can be controlled. Frankly, I tried to talk to the selectives, but I did not get any answer. All I can do is keep playing. I like Test cricket. I like to play with a red ball. This is my passion.
Rahane’s captaincy was fantastic
Ajinkya Rahane captained India in six Tests. India lost not a single match. Under Rahane’s captaincy, India won four Tests, while there were two draws. His captaincy also had an important role in the historic victory of BGT in the year 2020-21. On his captaincy, he said,
Every captain has its own style. When I became a Test captain, I always trusted my style, thinking and instinct. For me, it was about staying true towards my character and relying on his instinct.
Rahane will now be seen playing in domestic cricket where he represents Mumbai. The previous season was good for Rahane. He is trying to return through domestic cricket.
