India vs England: Best I have seen KL Rahul bat, he was clear with his plans, says Rohit Sharma

Firstpost  

KL Rahul scored an unbeaten 127 on Day 1 of Lord’s Test as India took control of the match. London: KL Rahul batted with an uncluttered mind and perhaps was at his best while executing the plans to perfection during his superb hundred, feels opening partner Rohit Sharma. Rohit’s own innings laid the foundation and he seemed happy that both him and Rahul were able to control their minds while facing the new ball and cut down the risky shots. “KL and myself — our mindsets are pretty similar and we want to take the game forward.” While he doesn’t consider his innings as the best he has batted overseas, he does feel that it was the most challenging one.
