India lost against South Africa in its fifth ODI thereby losing the series to South Africa. Everything else in today’s game is on one side and Ajinkya Rahane’s knock is on the other side. Rahane’s 87 came at strike rate of 150, his best in ODIs but still India lose the chase at a greater margin as none of the players supported him in the massive chase.

The Only Good thing happened for India in this ODI is that Rahane will be permanent member of ODI Team

The below are some best twitter reactions in support of Rahane’s massive knock:

Top 50 for @ajinkyarahane88. Showing he belongs here. Now to leave him alone at no 4.

Rahane’s soiled t-shirt reminds you of Gambhir in WC final at Wankhede.

Rahane is that kind of school boy who will always deny studying before the exam but will be topper after the results are declared #INDvSA

Ajinkhya Rahane is the most adaptive Indian batsman. One day, test or t20, he will deliver. #IndvsSA

Rahane – The guy you would expect the least from in such a chase is stepping up scoring at a strike rate of 150.

ABSOLUTE CLASS!!! #IndvSA

Rahane walks back after proving his worth again.. Was dropped a few months back for not being ‘aggressive’ enough !
