London: India batsman Ajinkya Rahane is confident that if the team play to their potential then they will be able to defend the Champions Trophy won in 2013. “It (Champions Trophy) will be a great challenge. Captain Virat Kohli’s deputy stated that the mood in the dressing room has been upbeat after a good practice session at the ‘Home of Cricket’. We had a fantastic first practice session. A lot of boys are getting a feel of this ground and it’s great culture for the first time,” said Rahane.
