Ravi Shastri has to sit with Ajinkya Rahane, even great players need motivation, says Maninder Singh

Ajinkya Rahane has scored just 95 runs thus far, 61 of which came in one innings at Lord's, at an average of 19 in the five innings he has batted in the five-match Test series.

India head coach Ravi Shastri needs to sit down with Test vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane and remind him how good he is, former spinner Maninder Singh has said. "I think there is going to be a lot of talk. Ravi Shastri is a good motivator and he has motivated this Indian team really well. That is why, probably, if you see their record since he has become coach, it has been pretty good.
