The 38-year-old played 85 Tests, 90 ODIs and 20 T20Is for India in a career which began in 2013. India won the Test by eight wickets in Melbourne to level the series 1-1 before winning in Brisbane. Rahane, who has had commentary stints in various leagues around the world, said he would remain associated with the game. Despite falling out of the national selectors’ radar, Rahane has been active in the domestic circuit and led Mumbai until the 2024-2025 season. Rahane captained Mumbai to their record-extending 42nd title victory in the Ranji Trophy in the 2023-2024 season when they beat Vidarbha in the final.
