The Mumbai batsman has struggled in ODI format, but his strong technique and temperament could work in his favor. In 2015 World Cup, he batted at number 4 and scored 208 runs in 8 matches including the flawless 79 against the Proteas in the league match.

Rahane has a decent record batting at number 4 where he scored 843 runs in 25 matches with five half-centuries to his name.

Considering the conundrum in the middle order, Rahane can seal the middle order spot with consistent performance.
