In the IND vs. SA 1st Test, KL Rahul responds with a smile to Marco Jansen’s sledge

During Day 1 of the first Test between India and South Africa at the SuprSport Park, Centurion, on Tuesday, i.e., December 26, Indian wicketkeeper-batter KL Rahul seemed pretty calm and composed at the crease, even as South African speedster Marco Jansen tried to have a heated argument with the former.
Jansen was probably trying to get under Rahul's skin and disrupt his concentration by asking him to play his shots. Rahul appeared to say something in return with a smile instead of getting worked up.
Here is the video of the incident.
KL Rahul's selection as the wicketkeeper-batter in the Indian team did raise a few eyebrows, especially since he was dropped from the Test side earlier this year.
