Ajinkya Rahane optimistic about Wellington pitch for batsmen

We will have to see and assess the conditions very quickly on the first day of the game and play accordingly."Virat Kohli had said after the Wellington Test that the batsmen had found it difficult to adjust to the lack of pace on the surface, and Rahane concurred here."There was swing and seam in Wellington and I thought the Wellington wicket was a bit soft and driving on it was a bit tough," he said. You have to trust your ability no matter what happens, whether the ball swings or seams."You cannot keep thinking about conditions; yes, the conditions matter till a point and after that what matters is how you tackle the conditions and play accordingly."At one point, Rahane mentioned the need for India to "forget" what happened in Wellington, where they lost by 10 wickets."See, you've got to think what mistake you did and then try to rectify that mistake," he said, when asked to clarify what he meant.
