Meanwhile, Rahul has said that leading India was a dream come true moment for him even though results didn’t go in his favour. He added that the team has learned a lot from the series defeat and with World Cups approaching they need to get better.

“It’s a huge honour and it’s a dream come true to represent my country and lead my country. Yes, the results didn’t go our way but I think there were massive learning. We are at a stage right now where we have World Cups as the focus and we are working towards getting better as a team.

“I feel like we have played very good cricket over the last four or five years but it’s also time for us to get better and transform our white-ball cricket,” KL Rahul told Sports Today in an exclusive chat.

I am confident in my leadership skills and I know that I can bring out the best from my players – KL Rahul

KL Rahul has faced a lot of criticism for his captaincy and several cricket experts have even raised questions over his capabilities to lead the team. However, Rahul has said that he has full confidence in his leadership skills and he knows he can bring the best out of his players.

“I don’t use that as an excuse for not winning, but I think we are a work in progress as a team. I learned so much while leading. Losses make you so much stronger than starting off with victories. My career has always been that way.

“I have always got everything slowly. I am confident in my leadership skills and I know that I can bring out the best from my players. I know I can do well for my country and franchise,” Rahul added.
