Meanwhile, KL Rahul is not having a great time with the bat on the field. While he had a decent outing in the World Cup, things have not gone well for him post the tournament. He had a forgettable outing during the West Indies tour and paid the price by losing his spot in the Test team. And with both Rohit Sharma and Mayank Agarwal doing well against South Africa, it looks unlikely he will return to the team any time soon.

Rahul is currently a part of India’s T20I squad for the ongoing three-match series against Bangladesh.
