Stand-in captain KL Rahul defends his poor patch since comeback: It is not easy as you think
India TodayIndia's stand-in captain KL Rahul reflected on India's journey at the Asia Cup, after defeating Afghanistan by a mammoth 101-run margin at the Asia Cup 2022. The right handed batter, who scored 62 off 41 balls, finally showed signs of coming back to form, batting alongside Virat Kohli, who came out to open in the absence of Rohit Sharma, who was rested for the dead rubber. In this format when you hit the first six off the middle gives you the confidence, I think the Hong Kong game I got a free-hit and though I didn't time it as well I could, I still hit the ball out of the ground and it felt good," Rahul said. "Coming into the Pakistan game I felt little better and getting few shots away gave me the confidence, I am slowly getting into rhythm," he said.
