Cricketer KL Rahul has been a force to be reckoned with ever since he returned from injury. On Monday, he scored a brilliant century against Pakistan, and then on Tuesday, he played a crucial 39-run innings against Sri Lanka. In front of the Asia Cup final and the forthcoming ODI World Cup, he hasn’t displayed any signs of rust, which is encouraging for the national squad.
Former cricketer Harbhajan Singh praised KL Rahul for his great effort, saying that the 31-year-old is getting runs in a wonderful manner and that it seemed like he was batting on a different pitch. Notably, the Indian hitters struggled because the surface was greatly favouring the spinners, but Rahul played his natural cricket and helped India score 213 runs, which helped the team win by 41 runs in Colombo.
Cricketer KL Rahul gets praises from Harbhajan Singh:
According to Harbhajan on his YouTube channel, “Rahul and Ishan Kishan’s collaboration was essential. KL Rahul is playing exceptionally well, and I hope I don’t ruin it. I really hope he doesn’t get hurt or anything. He is scoring runs in a sublime manner and it did not look like he was playing on the same pitch as the other batters.”
In the present Asia Cup 2023, Indian captain Rohit Sharma scored three consecutive half-centuries, which is encouraging for the squad before the ODI World Cup, which will be held at home. He is playing an aggressive style of cricket and providing the middle-order batters a good start so they can profit. Speaking of it, Harbhajan noted the cricketer’s outstanding performance against Sri Lanka on a slow surface.
Harbhajan continued, “Rohit Sharma played wonderfully on a slow track and appears to be in great shape heading into the ODI World Cup in 2023. He performed admirably both against Sri Lanka and Pakistan.”
India has already qualified for the competition’s finals, where it will face the winner of Pakistan and Sri Lanka on September 17. Prior to that, on September 15, the Men in Blue will face Bangladesh in their final Super Four game.
