IND vs SA Live: Acid Test for KL Rahul as Indian selectors to monitor his leadership
Rahul did not have the best of starts to his captaincy career as he lost 4 matches on the bounce against South Africa in January 2022. The BCCI selectors though have backed him yet again. This time Rahul will be leading the team in the shortest format of the game. This time his leadership will be monitored also. LSG skipper has confidence riding due to his good performance in IPL. South Africans will pose a steeper challenge and this will be an acid test for the batter.
“See, in South Africa tour, it was a new job for him. It’s not the same as leading an IPL franchise. Leading comes with immense pressure. He made some mistakes but it was also about learning. The T20 series is where he will be benchmarked. I am sure he will do an excellent job,” the selection committee member said.
