India vs Australia Dharamsala Test 2017

In a series where tempers flared, a lot was said, one man was putting his head down every game and ensuring India got good starts regularly. Rahul had made it a habit by then to get a start. In a decisive Test, his 60 off 124 balls was crucial for India getting close to the Australian total before rolling them over for a low score and chasing it down. Rahul registered a fine unbeaten 51 but there was no chance of converting that knock.

At the hometown of one of India's national hero in MS Dhoni, it was thanks to Rahul and Murali Vijay's efforts that India began well compared to Australia's 451.
