India vs Australia: Ajinkya Rahane says Ravindra Jadeja's improved batting, R Ashwin's knack for learning crucial for team

Firstpost  

Sydney: The ever-inquisitive Ravichandran Ashwin, who has a knack for learning new things, and much-improved batsman Ravindra Jadeja have stood out for India in the first two Tests against Australia, skipper Ajinkya Rahane said on Wednesday. While Ashwin is currently leading the wicket-takers’ chart with 10 scalps, Jadeja’s half-century and the hundred-plus stand with skipper Rahane in the second Test formed the cornerstone of India’s eight-wicket win in Melbourne. AP “As a batsman, Ravindra Jadeja has improved a lot and that is a massive point as a team’s perspective,” Rahane said. “See, as per history of Sydney, it is a very good wicket, very good wicket, so you just have to play some good cricket.” The SCG wicket aids spinners and that’s why Rahane doesn’t want his team to take chances while facing Nathan Lyon.
