‘Test series ka gussa T20 me nikal raha hai’: Fans enjoy KKR debutant Ajinkya Rahane’s game against CSK

First Umesh Yadav surprised all with his bowling, and then it was Ajinkya Rahane’s batting, there is surely something in Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) skipper Shreyas Iyer’s captaincy that is getting all the Indian cricketers back on track.

Coming in as an opener for KKR, Rahane already scored 34 runs off 26 balls. The Test player smashed 5 fours and a maximum already and is looking in good form.
