The former India opener, who also works with KL Rahul at the Lucknow Super Giants, went into detail about the India star’s poor recent performances.
KL Rahul, Team India’s star batter, has been struggling with the bat in recent months. Rahul had a forgettable performance in the T20 World Cup earlier this year, and after indifferent performances across formats since then, Rahul has been removed as India’s vice-captain for the upcoming ODI series against Sri Lanka. Furthermore, the Team India opener will not be playing in the Sri Lanka T20Is.
Rahul faced additional scrutiny in the recently concluded Test series against Bangladesh after scoring 22, 23, 10, and 2 across four innings. Former India opener Gautam Gambhir, who worked alongside Rahul as the Lucknow Super Giants’ mentor in the 2022 Indian Premier League, spoke candidly about the 30-year-old batter’s bat struggles.
