Mumbai skipper Ajinkya Rahane played a very good innings and scored a hundred in his Quarter-final match of the Ranji Trophy 2024-25 against Haryana. Batted very sensibly to reach his 41st first-class ton off a mere 160 balls with as many as 12 fours in the inning, which suggests Mumbai would be well-positioned throughout the game and hints Rahane was an expert in his trade with a lot of experience. 

A Crucial Performance by Mumbai
Mumbai was in a must-win situation and Rahane reached his century at the right time. Mumbai was in need of seniors to perform and Rahane did what was required at the top of his department. His calm and composure under pressure ensured that Mumbai trounced Haryana in the match

To BCCI Selectors
With that wonderful century Rahane has done you smell, BCCI selectors get back to the drawing board in terms of considering him fit for bigger tallers. Ahead of the India vs England Test series, the performance of Rahane might be of interest to national team selectors.
