Ahead of 2nd IND vs NZ 2024 Test ten Doeschate on Rahul says, “I went to KL after the last game and asked how many balls you missed and there were none”
Ahead of the second Test against New Zealand, former cricketer ten Doeschate praised KL Rahul’s commitment to the game, stating, “I went to KL after the last game and asked how many balls you missed, and there were none.” This comment highlights Rahul’s determination to improve his performance after a disappointing outing in the first Test, where he scored just 0 and 12 runs.
With India trailing 1-0 in the three-match series following an eight-wicket loss in Bengaluru, the team is under pressure to bounce back. The second Test begins on October 24 in Pune, and Rahul’s position in the playing XI is uncertain, especially with Shubman Gill expected to return from injury.
Doeschate emphasized that Rahul’s focus on rectifying his mistakes is crucial for the team’s success. As India seeks to level the series, they will need strong performances from all players, including Rahul, who has been a key figure in the lineup.
