The role of captain Ajinkya Rahane was crucial behind Team India’s historic series win in Australia. Rahane won the hearts of fans with her fantastic captaincy.

The Kangaroos beat India by 8 wickets in 2 and a half days to take a 1-0 lead in the series.

Virat Kohli returned to India after leaving the Test series against Australia in the middle. Rahane was named captain of the team.

Rahane led the team and scored a century at the Melbourne Stadium. As a result, the second Test was won by visiting India by 8 wickets.

Former England captain Michael Vaughan, Australia’s Ricky Ponting and Shane Warne also praised Rahane. Former Indian captain Bishan Singh Bedi has demanded the appointment of Rahane as the permanent Test captain in place of Virat Kohli. “Rahane reminded me of Tiger Pataudi,” he wrote in a column for a newspaper. The way Rahane led the Indian team, tasted a 2-1 victory in the Test series in Australia, is truly commendable., he said.
