How Rahane’s batting improved at CSK with a tweak in arm-guard in IPL 2023

The Hindu  

Ajinkya Rahane has been the toast of the comeback club in the Indian Premier League 2023 season. The security person had then told the maestro, “Sir, I have noticed whenever you wear an arm guard, your bat swing changes.” Recalling the moment in a video, Tendulkar said: “I don’t think I had spoken about this to anyone in the world. You are the only person in the world who figured that out.’ So, you won’t believe that I came back to my room from the ground and redesigned my elbow guard: the correct size, the right amount of padding and where the straps should be and all that.” For a batter, who shares a similar compact stance and range through the off-side and the ‘V’ with a controlled bat swing like Tendulkar, Rahane may have encountered a similar deterrent in his game during the lows.

Rahane has also worked more on power hitting with heavy balls to hold the shape better and generate better bat speed because this format demands that,” said Amre.
