LSG shared a funny post about KL Rahul

Actually, a video was shared on the social media account of Lucknow Super Giants, in which a creator from their social media team is congratulating KL Rahul that he has won the match. This person says to KL Rahul that I think you should be the next Defense Minister of India.

It is noteworthy that in the history of IPL, Lucknow team has defended the target of 160 or more runs 13 times. This is only the third season of Lucknow team and they have achieved this feat in three seasons. Whereas, if we talk about KL Rahul, his strike rate is a matter of concern for the team. Rahul has scored 126 runs so far this season and his strike rate is 128.57. This season too, he has definitely scored a half-century, but in that innings too, KL had scored 58 runs in 44 balls.
