The Great Bluff! Rahane Reveals How India Rose from 36 All Out

Ajinkya Rahane recently shared how he managed the Indian cricket team's morale following their record-low score of 36 in the Adelaide Test. By projecting an air of confidence to his players, the opposition, and the press, he successfully navigated a series plagued by injuries and pandemic-related restrictions to secure a 2-1 victory.

Rahane emphasized that he felt internal anxiety during the transition of leadership from Virat Kohli, yet he maintained a resilient exterior to inspire his squad throughout the remainder of the tour. He reminded his teammates of the honor associated with international representation, even as the roster dwindled to just eleven available players by the final match at the Gabba.
