KL Rahul is a Wanker!!!

Explaining an incident, KL Rahul quoted when he was fielding in the deep at historic MCG, the Aussie crowd asked him his name, as he was the newbie in the game of cricket.

When he replied them with his name, they started mocking him immediately. Continuing it, he added it is the best part of the Aussie crowd, as it is something which comes out when they are wholly involved in the game.

”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. When I was fielding at the deep square leg, someone from the crowd asked my name as the did not know me because it was my first Test,” KL Rahul quoted.

”I told them my name. 10-15 seconds later the whole section goes ‘Rahul is a wanker’. It was amazing, amazing experience. They obviously mocking if they don’t mean it seriously or maybe they do mean it seriously. But this is what I enjoy about Australia, their crowds and how they get so involved and they go after the players,” he added.

Well, as KL Rahul said, the Australian crowd has always been active in enjoying the game. It was not only one incident even the greatest players to grace the game also crossed their career by hearing those comments from the crowd.
