Watch: In India A vs Australia A Match, KL Rahul’s Brain Fade Produces ‘Most Bizarre Dismissal Of The Year’
KL Rahul’s struggles continued during the second unofficial Test against Australia A in Melbourne, where he scored just 10 runs off 44 balls. This followed a disappointing first innings where he managed only 4 runs, totaling a mere 14 runs in the match. His dismissal in the second innings was particularly embarrassing; he was bowled by spinner Corey Rocchiccioli after misjudging the delivery, deflecting it onto his stumps in a bizarre fashion.
Here is the video.
Rahul’s form has been a growing concern for the Indian team, especially as he was recently dropped from the Test squad after poor performances against New Zealand. His inclusion in the India A team was intended to help him regain his confidence ahead of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, but his lack of runs has only intensified scrutiny regarding his place in the team.
In contrast, DhruvJurel showcased resilience with a solid 80 runs amid a batting collapse, with India A managing only 161 runs in their first innings. As Rahul competes for an opening spot with Abhimanyu Easwaran, his recent performances have raised doubts about his selection for the upcoming series against Australia.
