Rayudu was in the squad for the 2013 tour to South Africa.

After his initial years of struggle, many finally felt that Ambati Rayudu had finally found his moment in Indian cricket when he was picked for the tour to South Africa.

The spot, up for grabs, was Number 6 where India tried out Ajinkya Rahane, who did a commendable job in the first Test at Johannesburg and was retained for the second game in Durban, where he eventually made 96 to seal his spot.

Post that, the right-hander has mostly been considered for the limited-overs format of the game and with an Indian batting line-up, as settled as the one now, it looks difficult for him to claw his way back into the Test setup once again.
