In the build-up to the much-awaited second Test between Australia and India, KL Rahul offered a playful response when asked about his batting position for the upcoming match. Speaking to the media before the big match in Adelaide, the right-handed batter’s quick wit and confident demeanour were on full display.

KL Rahul’s lighthearted response to his batting position query

Speaking to the media during a press conference in Adelaide, Rahul said that although he’s been informed, he’s been asked not to share the information today. It will be revealed either on Day 1 or when the captain arrives tomorrow.

I’ve been told, but I’ve also been told not to share it today. You have to wait for Day 1, or it may be when the captain comes here tomorrow,” Rahul said in the press conference.

The question about Rahul’s batting position arose due to the return of opener Rohit Sharma, who missed the first Test. In Rohit’s absence, Rahul had been promoted to the opening slot and made a significant impact, scoring a vital 77 runs in India’s second innings. Additionally, in the warm-up match against the Prime Minister’s XI, Rahul again opened the✅ batting, while Rohit, a regular opener,꧒ batted at number four.

India’s crushing victory in the first Test has added to the confidence of the team, with players such as Rahul showcasing their form and adaptability. As the series progresses, the Indian team will aim to maintain their dominance over Australia in what promises to be a highly competitive series
