Ajinkya Rahane confirms Shreyas Iyer will make his Test debut in the first Test against New Zealand 🇮🇳
Rahane with a niggle and physio to tend to him as he carries out drinks. Wah.
Mayank would have been dropped today if Rahane was Fit ! He is 120 Not out at the end of Day 1 ! Just an example of how Important guy has been blocking spot of those who deserve India - 221/4 #INDvNZ
Saha the specialist batter now. Him and Pant can coexist in one team. Still better than playing Pujara and Rahane in this form together.
@BCCI @Paytm This Paytm series will be a huge blessing for us. Agarwal and Iyer replacing Pujara and Rahane permanently.
The more I listen to discussions around Ajinkya Rahane ahead of the Wankhede Test, the more I realize these discussions eventually boil down to just two questions: * Will Ajinkya Rahane play? * Should Ajinkya Rahane play? So, here’s a #thread on the man… (1/25)
टीम इंडिया के हेड कोच राहुल द्रविड़ ने रहाणे की खराब फॉर्म को लेकर खुलकर बात की है, कहा- आप चाहेंगे कि वह आपके लिए ज्यादा रन बनाएं... #RahulDravid #AjinkyaRahane
“The main problem with Ajinkya Rahane is the initial step, something we also call the baby step. If the baby step falls onto the toe or the heel, then your leg gets stuck,” @VVSLaxman281 said. #INDvNZ
the only expectation that i have from rahane is to not go back into the pavilion for a duck

पाकिस्तान के पूर्व कप्तान दानिश कनेरिया ने की भविष्यवाणी, विराट कोहली को हटाकर अजिंक्य रहाणे को बनाया जाएगा टेस्ट का कप्तान #AjinkyaRahane #viratkholi
Eventually want Shreyas to replace Rahane and Gill to be our , Rohit-Mayank to open at home and Rohit-Rahul overseas.
Ajinkya Rahane has had a very ordinary 2021, scoring just 407 runs in 20 innings 😰🇮🇳 Should Team India drop their vice-captain? 👀🤔 #India #INDvNZ
Jadeja avgs 39 with the bat in India, Ashwin 29 and Rahane 36. In the last 5 years, that avg for Jadeja is 51 with the bat at home.
@CricCrazyJohns So, if we want Rahane to perform well in every he needs to be captain of the side?😒 #INDvNZ
Rahane saying, watch the ball, watch the ball to himself getting into his stance. Hmm.
Ajinkya Rahane confirms Shreyas Iyer will make his Test debut in the first Test against New Zealand 🇮🇳
NEWS ALERT: Shreyas Iyer is all set to make his Test debut in Kanpur, confirms Ajinkya Rahane. #INDvNZ
The 🇳🇿 top 5 - if it’s Latham, Blundell, Williamson, Taylor, Nicholls - will have played over 100 more tests than 🇮🇳’s top 5 - if it’s Agarwal, Gill, Pujara, Rahane, Iyer. 303 tests v 190. I can’t imagine this has happened very often in last few decades of 🇮🇳/🇳🇿 test cricket.
The media treatment Virat kohli receive is vastly different to what rahane rohit etc receive. Their accomplishments are consumed differently, and criticisms are certainly dished out in different tones. This isn’t an opinion, this is a fact.
Most Test hundreds in SENA in a calendar year by Asian players 4 - Virat Kohli (2018) 4 - Virat Kohli (2014) 3 - Sachin/Gavaskar/
Will senior stars Pujara and Rahane regain their form 🆚 New Zealand? 👀 #INDvNZ
My team for Kanpur Test. Mayank Aggarwal, Gill, Pujara, Shreyas Iyer, Rahane, Saha, Jadeja, Ashwin, Axar Patel, Ishant / Umesh , Mohd Siraj.
The next five Tests ( 2 vs NZ and 3 vs SA) very important for Ajinkya Rahane. With the sheer number of options available for that position now, Rahane needs to score. An Indian lineup with an in-form Rahane is so much more stable and dangerous. Hope he does well.
Virat has been rested for the first Test and Ajinkya Rahane will lead the side in his absence. #INDvNZ
My playing XI for the 1st test: Gill Mayank Pujara Rahane (C) SKY Saha (WK) Jaddu Thakur Ashwin Umesh Siraj Changes?
Virat kohli has taken 96 field catches and needs 4 more to reach the 100 catches milestone. Ajinkya rahane has taken 97 field catches and needs 3 more to reach the 100 catches milestone. Who acc to you will take 100 catches first??🤓
