Rahane To Make Test Commentary Debut During India Tour Of SL

Sony Pictures Networks India: Ajinkya Rahane is set to trade the crease for the commentary box as the former India captain embarks on the next chapter of his cricketing career during the upcoming two-Test series against Sri Lanka. He will make his Test commentary debut when Indias tour of Sri Lanka gets underway on August 15. The move comes shortly after Rahane ended a first-class career that spanned nearly 18 years. Having spent much of that time operating in the demanding environment of Test cricket, the 37-year-old will now offer his perspective from the other side of the boundary, analysing the tactical decisions and defining moments that shape a five-day contest. Rahane leaves behind an impressive Test record. Across 85 matches for India, he scored 5,077 runs, with 12 centuries and 26 half-centuries. His experience of playing in varied conditions and handling pressure at the highest level is expected to bring an insider's perspective to the broadcast. Rahane said the transition will give him an opportunity to view the format from an entirely different vantage point. Rahane leaves behind an impressive Test record.
