In the game of cricket, even the Sachin Tendulkar has faced the tough times. Right now Indian vice-captain, Ajinkya Rahane is going through a rough phase with the bat. There was a time in the year when he was the most successful in series against west Indies and in the next series against New Zealand he was equal to Indian skipper Virat Kohli.
But he is not able to impress with the bat in the ongoing series against England in the country. In the series so far he has got to bat in 5 innings and poorly he has scored 63 runs with an average of 12.06. While a month back his hunger for the runs can be seen in good shine and he has made 347 runs in 6 innings with an average of 67.40 against the kiwis scoring 188 as the highest score.
Although a player like him should not wait for the critics from the crowd. Definitely, his skills would also be disturbing him and he definitely would like to overcome the current form. He was sought to have batting sessions with his childhood coach Praveen Amre here in Mumbai. He has played against the spin over the nets and would like to gain back his confidence.
4th test match will be played here in Mumbai starting from 8th December. India has already taken the lead of 2-0 making the very first match resulting in a draw.
Amla-Cook's fortunes applied variably
