India vs Sri Lanka 2017, 1st Test, Day 2: 5 things we learnt from the day

#4 Rahane's wretched home form continues

Rahane hasn't had the best of times at home

While most of India's batsmen have enjoyed the extended home season, scoring runs at will and helping themselves to a fabulous batting average, one man, a prominent name in the Indian Test batting line-up, Ajinkya Rahane, is having a torrid time.

Since the start of the year, Rahane has made just 312 runs in 10 innings at an average of 34.66 with two half-centuries. If he thought the Sri Lankan series would present an opportunity to set the record straight, he was wrong. Shanaka forced an outside edge with him on 4 and the Mumbaikar had to take the long walk back.
