Indian player KL Rahul was not a part of the champion Indian team of T20 World Cup 2024. KL Rahul played the last match for India in this format during the T20 World Cup 2022. Rahul also did not get a chance in the T20 series of Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka tour, which clearly indicates that the management no longer sees him as a T20 format player.

However, former Indian player Dodda Ganesh believes that KL Rahul can still make a comeback in the shortest format of the game. However, Rahul needs to change his intent.

He can still make a comeback if he improves his approach- Dodda Ganesh

Dodda Ganesh tweeted on social media and wrote,

If KL Rahul improves his approach in T20, he can still make a comeback and perform well for the Indian team in T20 Internationals. He is such a good talent that he will be missed for a long time.

If KL Rahul rectifies his approach in the T20s he can still make a comeback and have a great stint with the Indian team in the T20Is. He is too good a talent to be missing out for long #DoddaMathu #SLvIND

It is difficult to choose between KL Rahul and Pant- Rohit Sharma

In the series against Sri Lanka, who among KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant should be given a place in the playing 11 as a wicketkeeper batsman is going to be a big headache for coach Gautam Gambhir and captain Rohit Sharma.

KL Rahul has shown a great game for India in the ODI World Cup 2023. At the same time, Rishabh Pant made a comeback in international cricket from the T20 World Cup 2024 after injury, he is now ready for a bang comeback in the ODI format as well.

Speaking ahead of the first ODI against Sri Lanka, Rohit Sharma said,

It is difficult to choose between KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant. Both are match winners in their own way. But it is a good problem and I want such problems. We will decide tomorrow.
