KL Rahul discovers weirdest way to get bowled, embarrassing dismissal paints sorry tale of India's batting in Australia

Hindustan Times  

KL Rahul is caught in a downward spiral, not for the first time in his career. The experienced right-hander, who has been caught down the leg side at least three times in his last 10 red-ball knocks, found another bizarre way to get out in the India A vs Australia second unofficial four-day match at the MCG in Melbourne. KL Rahul getting bowled as the sneaks through between his legs On a rain-interrupted Day 2 of the match, Rahul suffered a brain fade of the highest order against off-spinner Corey Rocchiccioli after doing all the hard work against pacers Scott Boland, Beau Webster and Nathan McAndrew. Seeking to open the batting for India in case skipper Rohit Sharma skips the first Test against Australia in Perth, Rahul endured a disastrous outing in the tune-up to the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and managed just 14 runs across two innings, having got out for 10 in India A's second innings. Earlier, India A's pace attack, spearheaded by Prasidh Krishna's four-wicket burst and Mukesh Kumar's three-wicket haul, dominated the Australian batting, dismissing them for 223 in 62.1 overs.
