India's stand-in skipper in the recently-concluded Test series against Australia, Ajinkya Rahane received a grand in his society building after arriving from Down Under.  In a viral video that is doing the rounds on social media, Rahane, who arrived in Mumbai from Australia along with four other members of Team India earlier in the day, can be seen holding his daughter as fans shower flowers on the India batsman.

Rahane led Team India after the first Test of the four-match series in Australia as Virat Kohli came back home on paternity leave. Rahane led from the front in Melbourne and scored a fine century to guide India to victory and level the series at 1-1. The visitors managed to secure a hard-fought draw in Sydney and then registered a famous win at the Gabba in Brisbane to win the series, 2-1. In the fourth Test, Rahane scored a quick-fire 24 off 22 balls to set the tone for India's thrilling run chase as the visitors chased down 328 runs on Day 5. Rahane scored 268 runs in four matches at an average of 38.29 with one century
