But, in spite of his performances in both domestic and international cricket, former Indian cricketer Kris Srikkanth believes the selection committee made the right choice in selecting KL Rahul.
,In the longest format, Sarfaraz Khan, an Indian batsman of 26 years old, has left quite an impression. Sarfaraz, who has only played three Tests so far, has amassed 200 runs at an average of fifty runs per five innings.
The Indian team for the opening Test match against Bangladesh was just revealed by the BCCI (Board of Control for Cricket in India). September 19 will see the start of the series’ opening Test in Chennai. It is noteworthy that KL Rahul and Sarfaraz Khan were both included in India’s squad for the Test against Bangladesh; however, Srikkanth claims that Rahul could play before of Sarfaraz at position five.
“I have a lot of sympathy for Sarfaraz Khan. But in Test cricket, this does occasionally occur. You would have been performing well, but you will have to drop out when a major player comes back. For example, Dhruv Jurel and Sarfaraz Khan are losing their positions as a result of Rishabh Pant’s return.
Kris Srikkanth was quoted by IndiaToday as saying, “KL Rahul is coming in.”
In the back of their minds, they plan to keep the Australia series as well. There are also visitors from New Zealand. KL Rahul has had success abroad; he has also had success in Australia “he continued.
K.L In the opening Test of the season against England, Rahul looked impressive for India, but an injury forced him to miss the remainder of the series. In order to earn a spot in India’s squad for the forthcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia, he will be eager to perform well against Bangladesh in the Test series.
