Ajinkya Rahane played a really good knock in Lord’s Test: Virender Sehwag

Previous India opener Virender Sehwag commended vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane for his courageous 61-run pound on Day 4 of the Lord’s Test against Britain. Sehwag said that we scrutinize Rahane as well as often as possible but we got to not neglect that our most critical overseas Test arrangement win came underneath his authority.

Rahane joined strengths with Cheteshwar Pujara (45) to put up a strong 100-run stand for the fourth wicket to put India in a comfortable position sometime recently Moeen Ali scripted England’s comeback within the last session.

Pujara and Rahane, who were desperately seeking out runs, showed up the coarseness and affirmation that they are known for to initiate back among the runs. They might not have scored gigantic hundreds but the number of balls they devoured kept the visitors inside the preoccupation. Rahane got a life on 31 when he dropped by Jonny Bairstow off Moeen Ali.

“He played a really good knock. He had luck on his side as he got drop on 39. And he would be satisfied with his innings. Not happy off course but he will be satisfied after getting 60 odd runs to his credit. Had he converted that fifty into a century, he would’ve been happier,” Sehwag said.

“I must say that we criticize him often. We shouldn’t forget the series triumph in Australia. He scored a hundred in Melbourne after India was all-out for 36 in Adelaide. India won at MCG, drew in Sydney, and won in Brisbane. I feel the series win in Australia is the biggest overseas win and it was under Rahane’s leadership. We criticize him a lot but we had our greatest Test series win under his leadership,” Sehwag added.
