Don't think it will affect my batting in second innings: Rahane on finger injury

London, Jun 9 (PTI) Battling a finger injury, India's saviour Ajinkya Rahane on Friday dispelled doubts about his involvement with the bat in his team's second innings of the World Test Championship final against Australia here.

Rahane, who made a memorable 89 in his comeback Test after 18 months, hoped that the finger injury he sustained on Thursday would not affect his batting in the second innings.

"Don't think it will affect (my) batting (in India's second innings)," Rahane told the broadcaster at the end of the third day's play.
