I hope they convert those fifties into centuries : Bhajji backs Rahane & Pujara ahead of the series decider in Cape Town
Xtra Time Web Desk : As Team India is gearing up the Test series decider in Cape Town against the Proteas from January 11, cricketing world looks set for the tantalizing and enthralling clash between the two giants of world cricket, which could see the visitors claim their first ever Test series win against the hosts. And now former Team India off spinner Harbhajan Singh has highlighted some key points about the mouth watering clash.
In his recent YouTube video, speaking about Ajinkya Rahane and Cheteshwar Pujara, Bhajji said, "The good thing that happened in the Johannesburg Test was that runs came from Ajinkya Rahane's bat in the second innings. I hope Ajinkya Rahane is given another chance in Cape Town. It should not happen that Virat Kohli comes in and Ajinkya Rahane is made to sit out. I will want Rahane to score runs, to convert the fifty to a hundred, so that his confidence will be better for the upcoming series. The sword is hanging over the necks of Ajinkya Rahane and Pujara. So, it felt good that both of them scored runs and batted with responsibility. I hope those fifties would have been converted to centuries but it's good to see that both of them are gaining their confidence. I know there is a lot of pressure when a player is not in form but I think you guys have done a commendable job."
Now, with the Test series tied at 1-1 it would be intriguing to see who comes out as the winner in the 'Battle of Cape Town'.
