KL Rahul, who played a gritty knock in the 3rd Test match at the Gabba, scored a strong 84 runs, showing just how valuable he is, especially in overseas conditions. In the first Test match as well, alongside centurion Yashasvi Jaiswal, he made 77 runs in the second innings. Rahul has been outstanding in overseas cricket, from South Africa to Australia, and now even in England.
