We knew Rahane could play innings like that: Starc
London, Jun 9 (PTI) Australia pacer Mitchell Starc on Friday said Ajinkya Rahane showed how to bat on a seaming pitch as his 89 kept India in the hunt in the World Test Championship final here.
India are well behind in the game but if was not for Rahane’s knock, they were staring at a follow on.
“He played really well. We know Jinks can play innings like that; we've seen it through series before. He came in at a tough time to bat and managed to, along with Thakur as well, to absorb some pressure there and build an innings and played really nicely," said Starc.
