One of the reasons behind the success of Indian Cricket Team in the longest format of the game has been the inclusion of test specialists. Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane have been the specialists in the batting department while Ishant and Ashwin have been phenomenal in their bowling performances in whites.
The test match stalwarts have been regularly playing for the side. Their presence coupled with the players who play all multiple formats brings a good balance to the side. It has indeed been the story that success in test cricket develops the overall cricket of a player.
Ajinkya Rahane, a youngster who made his test debut a few years ago made rapid strides in all formats of the game. Known as a player of all formats, he particularly developed his excellence in the longest format of the game proving his adaptability in all kinds of pitches, home and away.
His century at Lord”s back in 2014, partnership with Virat at Melbourne and what not. Over the years, he has been displaying his “A” grade game which has been a prominent factor in India”s dominance.
Today, he is celebrating his 31st birthday and the social media including few legends of the game are wishing him a very happy birthday. Sachin Tendulkar, Ishant Sharma, Rohit Sharma and many cricketers who were a part of his journey have been pouring their wishes on social media.
He is currently a part of Hampshire squad in the county season. A week ago, he became the third only Indian to score a century on county debut. His performance in county cricket comes as a blessing in disguise for the Indian side which will be competing for the world test championship in a few months from now.
CricFit wishes Ajinkya Rahane a very happy birthday and all the very best for his upcoming cricket schedules.
