KL Rahul gave a big statement
Let us tell you that after the end of the second day’s play, KL Rahul, while talking to Jio Cinema, said in Match Center Live – I could have been out on zero, but I scored 86 runs. I may come to bat tomorrow and think that I missed a century. But to be honest, I enjoyed my game.
Rahul further said- We had also seen the England team playing here yesterday, I think it was not such a wicket where you wait for a weak (loose) ball. You will have to make a little effort yourself so that the bowlers are not able to bowl consistently on their line and length. I was looking for opportunities to score runs in the match. I had some shots in my mind at that time, if the bowler bowled there continuously then he was ready to play those shots on those occasions.
