A tweet from an Indian journalist goes viral after stand-in Indian skipper KL Rahul fails in the second Test against Bangladesh. He lashed out at the batter saying that how the 31-year-old is the future of the Indian team as he averages 35 after 44 Test, which is less than Ravindra Jadeja, Shikhar Dhawan and Mayank Agarwal, who are out of the team.
KL Rahul gets dismissed for 10 runs in 45 balls in the second Test against Bangladesh
KL Rahul’s form is behind one of the major concerns for India as he bagged yet another dismissal after getting out for just 10 runs in 45 balls in the second Test against Bangladesh.
Rahul looked scratchy at the crease as he defended almost every ball and hardly tried to score. The right-hander after getting out for early scores in the first game was expected to play a good knock for his side and put them in a dominating situation.
But this wasn’t the case as was trapped in LBW by Taijul Islam. Rahul danced down the track but wasn’t quite to the pitch of the ball and decided to block it out. The ball hit his front pad first. He decided to review the decision but it too went against him as he had to take the long walk back to the pavilion.
Notably, Rahul has already been under the firing line for his poor string of scores and it’s fair to say that this dismissal won’t do any good to him. His stats in the Test are not good as he has just 2602 runs at a poor average of 34.69 with 7 hundreds and 13 fifties.

As KL Rahul bagged another failure for India, a tweet from an Indian journalist goes viral after the batter fails in the second Test against Bangladesh. He questioned Rahul’s presence in the team as a skipper and said:
“How almost 31 years old KL Rahul is the future of the Indian team? Average 35 after 44 tests. Even Ravindra jadeja’s test average is better than him. Shikhar and Mayank’s average is better than him but they are out of the team. And Rahul is captain. Pathetic from BCCI.”
