In the 1st ODI against Zimbabwe, KL Rahul who didn’t open with Shikhar Dhawan failed to get a chance to bat. India convincingly batted well and went on to win the game by 10 wickets. That however wasn’t the case in the 2nd ODI. Desperate to get batting time, KL Rahul went on to open proceedings with vice-captain Shikhar Dhawan.
Rahul’s stay in the crease was short-lived. He played 5 deliveries where he managed to score just a solitary run before being dismissed of an lbw. With time running out, Rahul only has the remaining ODI to get his much-needed batting time and shake off his rustiness ahead of the mega tournament.
