Ajinkya Rahane’s credentials as a batter is well known. An experienced campaigner who has played for Mumbai, India and various IPL franchises in the past, Rahane will be turning up for the Kolkata Knight Riders this year. Rahane has been a prolific run-scorer at the top-order in the past and he could well be the perfect foil for aggressive opening partners. It will be interesting to see how KKR use him in their batting line-up that boasts of the likes of Venkatesh Iyer, Shreyas Iyer and Andre Russell.
