KL Rahul has been a force to be reckoned with ever since making his injury comeback.
He produced an important 39-run knock against Sri Lanka on Tuesday after hitting a brilliant century against Pakistan on Monday. His lack of rust is encouraging for the national squad as it prepares for the Asia Cup final and the next ODI World Cup.
Former cricketer Harbhajan Singh praised the 31-year-old for his extraordinary effort and said that it appeared as though KL Rahul was batting on a different pitch because of the way he is accumulating runs. Rahul played his natural game and helped India record 213 runs on the board, which helped the team win by 41 runs in Colombo despite the fact that the pitch was significantly favouring the spinners and the Indian hitters were hampered by that.
The collaboration between Rahul and Ishan Kishan was essential. KL Rahul is playing so good right now, and I hope I don’t ruin it. I’m hoping he doesn’t suffer any harm. He is scoring runs in an exquisite manner, and it didn’t appear that he was using the same pitch as the other batters, according to Harbhajan’s YouTube commentary.
Before the 2023 ODI World Cup, Rohit Sharma appears to be in great shape. Harbhajan
Prior to the ODI World Cup, which would be played at home, Indian captain Rohit Sharma made three consecutive half-centuries in the ongoing Asia Cup 2023. In order to set up the middle order hitters for success, he is playing an aggressive style of cricket. Harbhajan brought up how the cricketer had performed admirably against Sri Lanka on a slow surface.
“Rohit Sharma looked in great shape before the 2023 ODI World Cup and played brilliantly on a slow surface. He performed well both against Pakistan and now Sri Lanka,” Harbhajan continued.
In the meantime, India has already qualified for the competition’s finals and will face Pakistan’s victor on September 17. The Men in Blue will first face Bangladesh in their final Super Four game on September 15.
