Ajinkya Rahane, who is playing for CSK in IPL and showing excellent game, has been rewarded by BCCI. He has once again got the ticket for Team India.

Ajinkya Rahane returns to Team India

The biggest and most important name in the team announced by the BCCI is Ajinkya Rahane. Although he is called a Test specialist, but due to poor form, his place was lost, but now after a long wait of about 17 months, Ajinkya Rahane has once again returned to Team India. The reason for this is IPL 2023, where he is playing for Chennai Super Kings under the captaincy of MS Dhoni. Here he is batting explosively.

The final match will be played on England's over ground from June 7. If rain becomes an obstacle in the match, then a reserve has also been kept for that.
