Top 5 innings played by Ajinkya Rahane outside the Indian subcontinent

#4 118 vs New Zealand, Wellington

On a spicy pitch at the Basin Reserve in Wellington, Indian captain MS Dhoni won the toss and elected to field first.

His bowlers vindicated his decision as they reduced the hosts to 86 for six and then eventually dismissed them for 192.

In reply, India batted beautifully and on the back of superlative innings from Shikhar Dhawan and Ajinkya Rahane, posted 438.

It was here when Rahane shot to prominence with a brilliant innings of 118 off 158 balls and took the match away from the hosts.

New Zealand did very well to salvage a draw after being reduced to 94 for five on the back of a triple century by Brendon McCullum and a century by BJ Watling.
