The young fan who was all so excited gave an amusing reply as he said, “Ayenge! School gaya bhaad me” which roughly translates to “Will come! To hell with school.” The Indian skipper was quick to correct the lad and asked him not to skip school. The young boy responded by saying that nothing important is going to happen in school on the match day anyway.
KL Rahul will be looking to make a strong comeback and get into a rhythm as he was out of the field for a long period of time. The men in blue will be looking to dominate the proceedings against the Zimbabwe team and win the series 3-0, however, they can’t underestimate the side. A lot of youngsters are representing India in the series and have the opportunity to make a mark at the international level.
