Warning from Former India Batter

A former India batter cautioned that the management’s patience with Rahul might soon end if his form does not improve. He emphasized that continued failures could lead to younger players getting more opportunities, as selectors might look for consistency and reliability in top-order positions.

“Patience will run out if KL Rahul keeps missing chances. Others are waiting to prove themselves,” said the ex-cricketer.

Ongoing Pressure and Expectations

Rahul’s struggles in overseas conditions have been a recurring issue throughout his Test career. While his technique and talent remain evident, experts argue that he must convert starts into significant scores to justify continued selection. Fans hope he can rediscover his best form in the upcoming series.
