Former India cricketer Robin Uthappa believes that the team should give KL Rahul more chances, despite his string of poor performances at the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022. He also suggested that KL Rahul is a match-winner who will surely deliver for the team if he gets continuous chances as well. However, Uthappa added that the right-handed batter had succumbed under pressure at the mega event.

Uthappa said: “KL Rahul is a proven campaigner and when he fires, he is going to be a match-winner for India. I feel they should continue backing him. When you back a player like him consistently, there will come a point when he will finally perform.”Rahul is under a lot of pressure and it seems as if he has gone into a shell and his mind is clouded.”

Rahul managed just nine runs off 14 balls during his brief stay at the crease against the Proteas. He has had a poor campaign so far at the T20 World Cup 2022, scoring 22 runs from three outings at a dismal average of 7.33. During the discussion, Wasim Jaffer shared how Suryakumar Yadav’s form is going to be the key for India in the T20 World Cup 2022.

“Suryakumar Yadav is definitely among the top T20I batters in world cricket. He’s got a lot of options because of those unorthodox shots. It’s always challenging to bowl against a batter who scores runs in all areas of the ground. He is a very important player in the Indian lineup and will be the key for India if they want to go ahead in this tournament.
