England vs India 2018: Predicting India's batting order for the Tests

#5 Ajinkya Rahane

The vice-captain will follow the captain, and there is little doubt that a firing Ajinkya Rahane is critical to India's chances in the series.

Back in 2014, his century was one of the primary reason for India's win at Lord's and this series, the pressure will once again be on him to get the job done for his side.

However, he has not been in the best of forms of late, but he is a gun player in overseas conditions and has the temperament and ability to turn around his string of low scores in a matter of one session.
