Of late, Dinesh Karthik is in scintillating form for team India. He has done exceptionally well in the T20I format of the game but unfortunately, couldn’t find a place in the ODI or Test squad. On the other hand, KL Rahul is still carrying the tag of ”talented batsman” but failing to live up to that.

Speaking in the interview, KL Rahul quoted he would visit that Pancake Place whenever he is in Brisbane. He said it was his guilty pleasure to eat an ice-cream at that place and then burn those calories on the field.

Further, KL Rahul recalled an incident when he made his debut under MS Dhoni’s captaincy at the MCG in 2014. He revealed MS Dhoni was continuously asking him to change his place on the field but MCG being a vast ground, he couldn’t see MS Dhoni from the deep.

“It’s a ritual for me to visit this pancake place whenever i am in Brisbane. I indulge myself in my guilty pleasure. The ice-cream will be unhealthy, but it’s okay, we have training later so will burn all the calories. The crowd is really against us, they love their cricket, but they will make our lives hard on the ground. That is why cricket in Australia is exciting”, said Rahul.

“When I played my first Test at Melbourne, you know how huge the Melbourne field is, I was standing at deep square leg. Mahi Bhai was our captain, he was trying to move him, I couldn’t even see him. In the background you cannot pick it up, it is so far” the right-hander revealed.

Well, KL Rahul has always enjoyed playing in Australia. However, of late, he is not in a great form to repeat his heroics for the team. Hopefully, the right-handed batsman would come good in the upcoming Test series, where it all began for him four years back.
