Men’s ODI WC: Rahul's Really Kept Superbly In This Tournament; Batted Really Well, Says Dravid
ODI World Cup: India head coach Rahul Dravid lavished rich praise on KL Rahul’s performances with the bat and gloves in the ongoing Men’s ODI World Cup, saying that his wicket-keeping has been superb in the tournament and has also batted really well.
Rahul has taken five catches in the tournament so far, with his catch of Mehidy Hasan Miraz, made with an outstretched left hand, being the highlight in Pune. With the bat, Rahul was instrumental in rescuing India from 2-3 against Australia at Chennai with an unbeaten 97 and sharing a match-winning 165-run partnership off 215 balls with Virat Kohli.
Dravid also knows a thing or two about batting as well as keeping wickets, having donned the dual role during 2003 World Cup. “It's certainly not easy and I think he is doing a fantastic job of it. I thought Rahul's really kept superbly in this tournament and then batted really well whenever he's got the opportunity to do that, especially in the first game.”
