Indian cricket team's Test team vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane gave a befitting reply to social media trolls through a Facebook post after India's grand victory in the India vs England 2nd Test at Lord's. Rahane, who is popular for his cool demeanor, shared a picture of himself on Facebook. Posting the picture, Rahane wrote in the caption, "My reaction when the trolls get trolled."
Earlier this year in January, team India, under stand-in skipper Ajinkya Rahane's captaincy defeated Australia 2-1 to retain the Border Gavaskar Trophy. With this historic win, India has become the first country since West Indies to defeat the Aussies in Brisbane.
However, Rahane recently faced a lot of criticism for not scoring runs this year. Hitting back at his critics, Rahane played a crucial innings of 61 runs for India in the second innings. KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were dismissed early in India's second innings. After this, when the team was in trouble, Rahane played an important innings to save India's sinking ship as he shared a solid 102-run partnership with Cheteshwar Pujara.
Pujara and Rahane played a key role in India's 151-run victory over England at Lord's. For India, Mohammed Shami played an unbeaten innings of 56 runs in the second innings. At the same time, Bumrah scored 33 runs, which is his highest score in Tests.
After this, due to the excellent performance of the fast bowlers,team India took a 1-0 lead in the 5-match Test series. Mohammad Siraj took 4 wickets in the second innings for India, while Bumrah bagged 3 wickets.
