India vs West Indies: 5 biggest positives for India from this series

#3 Rahane's batting in this series

His contributions will be important in Australia.

With the likes of Murali Vijay, and Shikhar Dhawan dropped from the team, the onus is now on Pujara, Kohli, and Rahane to perform as they are the senior most players in this new look Indian outfit. He seemed scratchy in the First Test match but bailed India out of trouble in the second Test match along with Pant.

Ajinkya Rahane will be an important asset when India tours Australia, and his contributions will be invaluable to team's cause in their bid to secure maiden series win down under. He just needs one big inning which could a start of a purple patch for Rahane.

The team management certainly has faith in Rahane and have given him a long rope despite his failures for the past few seasons. He needs to repay the faith by making some match-winning performances along the way.
