India vs Windies: Each And Every Match Is Equally Important - Ajinkya Rahane

The 30-year-old Ajinkya Rahane feels that India needs to take the Windies seriously, as each and every match is equally important for the nation.

However, India had a poor series against England as they lost 1-4 from the five-match Tests. Rahane conveys that India is aware of their conditions and they need to focus on their job. They should think that the England tour was a bad dream.

“We know the Indian conditions and we know how to go about our job and what shots to play here. England was different, so we will have to quickly mentally switch.

Moreover, Ajinkya Rahane feels that it is very important to play according to their standards and India need to start the series in a good note.

“It was a great achievement to win Asia Cup and players, who got an opportunity there did well, but this is a new series and we can’t take them lightly. We have to focus to improve our own game,” he added.

India needs to improve their batting standards and to play some good cricket. They need to dominate the opposition from the very first match and put pressure on them.

“No matter whom we play, whether it is Australia, England or West Indies, it is important to improve our own standard. Our goal will be to play some good cricket, definitely to dominate from the first match and improvement as a batsman, as a bowler and as a team, that would be the focus.” Ajinkya Rahane concluded.

India and Windies will clash off for the two-match Test series starting from October 4 (Thursday).
