KL Rahul’s lack of runs continued in the second Test as well, and it looks like he is struggling to find his rhythm. In the second innings, the Indian opener was dismissed in a rather unlucky manner. While facing Nathan Lyon’s delivery, Rahul played a whip shot towards the leg side, but the ball hit the fielder at short leg and lobbed up to the wicketkeeper Alex Carey.

KL Rahul Finding It Difficult To Get Back In The Groove
The keeper had an easy catch, and Rahul had to take a slow walk back to the pavilion. It looks like Rahul is struggling to find his form and it’s becoming increasingly difficult for him to get back in the groove. With this continued failure, the question now arises, will this be the last time we see him in the whites for a while?
Rahul, who is known for his aggressive style of batting, hasn’t been able to make an impact in the current series. He is finding it hard to counter the Australian bowlers and is struggling to build big partnerships at the top of the order. It remains to be seen if the team management will give him another chance or look for alternatives going forward.

To all those who trolled me saying KL Rahul is a great batsman should look at his current form.
FRAUD KL Rahul should be sacked from international cricket and should start playing in Ranji. Now i support Venkatesh Prasad fully 🫡#INDvAUS

If you attach a dynamo to KL Rahul’s head when he gets out, we can generate enough electricity to light up the floodlights in the stadium.

Indian cricket became the tops in the world when it became a clinical, unemotional and unbiased meritocracy. This must’ve changed if KL Rahul can keep his place, averaging just about 25 in 49 Test innings at the top order since 2017. While Gill waits. Merit, anybody?

#KLRahul need not worry about his twin failures in #delhitest in the #AUSvsIND series
Just as Bhishma Pitamaha had Icchha Mrityu boon (option to choose when he dies), he too has Icchha-Retirement Vardaan….thanks to Dhritrashtra Dravid and his other Maayi Baaps in @BCCI 🤮

KL Rahul 🤦🏻♂️ The poor form this guy is always in and the number of chances he gets is simply unbelievable. Never seen any cricketer or any sports person for that matter getting these many chances & repeatedly fucking it up. #INDvAUS
