After retiring from international cricket, Ajinkya Rahane is considering a move to SA20. Former South Africa all-rounder Chris Morris has endorsed him, citing his experience, calmness and leadership, Times Now reports. Rahane has already signed with Amsterdam Flames for the European T20 Premier League.

Rahane recently credited his 2023 transformation at Chennai Super Kings for reviving his T20 career, Times of India reports. He scored 326 runs at a strike rate of 172.48 after years as an anchor. Two months of preparation and CSK's backing allowed him to play freely, he said. His breakthrough came when he smashed 61 off 27 balls against Mumbai Indians after replacing an ill Moeen Ali at the last moment.
Some will say Rahane's revival was solely due to CSK's system, others that his earlier failure was forced by wrong roles. The truth is simpler: he prepared differently, got a clear backing, and seized one late opportunity. At 38, can he replicate that freedom in a new league like SA20, or will the anchor habit return? His strike rate in the upcoming season will settle that.
