Ajinkya Rahane will don the India whites once more for the upcoming two-Test series versus West Indies, having also been named vice-captain for the matches.

Rahane scripted his comeback to the national side after he was dropped from the Test side 18 months ago.

Speaking to Press Trust of India, the Test veteran said, ‘I am really happy to be back in the team and really happy to be back as a vice-captain.’

With India looking to revamp their Test side, 35-year-old Rahane’s inclusion has raised questions which he brushed aside saying, ‘What do you mean by at this age? I am still young. There's still a lot of cricket in me.’

He continued, ‘I have worked on a few aspects of my batting. At the moment I am enjoying my cricket. I am not thinking too much about the future. For now every match is important for me.’

Rahane returned to the team on the back of a good Ranji season and his impressive run for Chennai Super Kings during the 2023 IPL.
