Former captain Rahul Dravid advised Ajinkya Rahane not bat a lot in the nets and put pressure on himself while leading the Indian team in Australia.
"Rahul bhai actually called me before the series, when we were leaving to Australia from Dubai. He said, `Don`t take any stress, I know you are leading the team after the first Test. Don`t worry about anything, just be strong mentally. Don`t bat a lot in the nets`, (which is) unlike Rahul bhai," Ajinkya Rahane told commentator Harsha Bhogle in an interaction.
