KL Rahul will play as a specialist batsman in the Test series against England – claims BCCI official
KL Rahul (Photo Source: Getty Images) Indian cricketer KL Rahul, after an incredible comeback in Test cricket, will be seen playing not as a wicketkeeper but as a specialist batsman in the home Test series against England. Rahul played in the two-Test series against South Africa and scored a brilliant century in Centurion. However, according to the TOI report, the team management wants to use him as a specialist batsman and not a wicketkeeper on the turning tracks at home. A BCCI source made a big revelation regarding KL Rahul A BCCI source was quoted by TOI as saying, “Rahul will play as a specialist batsman from now on. While in overseas Tests you just have to stand up to the fast bowlers, wicketkeeping is not easy in India, where the spinners can work in tandem. The ball may bounce or spin faster on spin-friendly home wickets. You have to move up and down as a ‘keeper. “We want a specialist in that role.” The source further said, “Rahul, on the other hand, is one of our most valuable batsmen. We don’t want to trouble him by making him keep wickets. There is also a risk of injury if he stands behind the stumps. Which we cannot tolerate. Bharat and Dhruv Jurel will be our wicketkeepers in this series.” There has been a lot of debate about Ishan Kishan’s availability after he asked for a break due to mental fatigue during the South Africa tour. Whereas there were many reports that the team management had thrown him out due to his poor attitude. But later coach Rahul Dravid clarified in a press conference that Ishaan has not yet made himself available for selection. Regarding this matter, the source said, “He (Ishan) has not been considered for the England series because he has not yet told the BCCI whether he can be considered for selection again or not.” Also read: This Australian star cricketer suddenly retired from cricket

Irfan Pathan Team India (Photo Source: X/Twitter) Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan believes that India will need the experience of senior players Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in the 2024 T20 World Cup to be held in West Indies and America in June. Both the players have not played a single T20I match since the 10-wicket defeat against England in the 2022 World Cup semi-final. Since then, the team management and selection committee have continuously given opportunities to young players in this format. After missing out on winning the title with a crushing defeat in the 2023 ODI World Cup final, the upcoming T20 World Cup is being considered as another important opportunity for Kohli and Rohit to win the ICC trophy. However, looking at the kind of team with which Team India has played the T20 World Cup since the 2022 World Cup, it is still not certain whether Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will play in the upcoming T20 World Cup or not.

Playing of Virat and Rohit depends on their fitness – Irfan Pathan During a conversation on a show on Star Sports, Irfan Pathan said that, “Personally, I would love to see Virat on the field because when we talk about two years ago, he was definitely not in his best form. But the last IPL and T20 was one of the most amazing tournaments for him, Also, when you are playing in countries like West Indies and USA, no one knows about the pitch there, and here you will need experienced players like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma both on and off the field. “ He further said, “Playing of both the players also depends on the team management and their fitness, but I would like to see both of them on the field, especially when Rohit has also changed his form and he is scoring a lot of runs in ODI cricket.

Fans are eagerly waiting to see Rohit and Kohli playing in a T-20 match on the field once again. However, with key players like Hardik Pandya and Suryakumar Yadav unavailable due to injuries, the selection committee will be faced with the challenge of appointing a new captain for the T20Is. Additionally, the committee is considering resting fast bowling pair Mohammed Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah for the upcoming matches against Afghanistan. Both Siraj and Bumrah played important roles in India’s recent win over South Africa, ending the two-match Test series with a draw.
