KL Rahul Will Play A Huge Role For Team India In The Upcoming T20 World Cup, Believes Virat Kohli

By IANS News September 09, 2022 • 17:56 PM View: 1177

Former India skipper Virat Kohli feels KL Rahul will have to play a huge role if the team is to perform well in the ICC T20 World Cup in Australia later this year, saying it's crucial for the opening batter to be in a "good space" heading into the mega event.

Kohli, who was pushed up the order and opened the batting with stand-in skipper KL Rahul against Afghanistan in the Asia Cup Super Four game on Thursday, said the opener plays some "clean shots" and provides solidity at the top.
