Sanjay Manjrekar praised KL Rahul’s outstanding performance during the second Test against Bangladesh, highlighting his impressive fifty of 68 runs off just 43 balls. Manjrekar specifically noted Rahul’s exceptional reverse-sweeping ability, calling him “the best reverse-sweeper India has got.” This skill was evident as Rahul effectively maneuvered the Bangladesh bowlers throughout his innings, contributing significantly to India’s declaration at 285/9.
Rahul’s aggressive batting, alongside YashasviJaiswal’s blistering 72 off 52 balls, helped India establish a commanding position in the match. The duo’s efforts were part of a broader trend of rapid scoring, as India set records for the fastest team fifty, hundred, and two hundred in Test history during this innings.
