Aakash Chopra has praised KL Rahul. He’s always performing well for India, even though some criticisms seem unmerited.
On Tuesday, December 26, in Centurion, India’s first Test match against South Africa began. Rahul amassed an undefeated 70 in India’s total of 208/8. With Mohammed Siraj at the wicket and Prasidh Krishna at the other end, he should be able to get the visitors near to or over 250 runs.
Chopra commended Rahul for demonstrating his value once more in a video that he posted on his YouTube page. He clarified:
The former India opened added:
Rahul took over the bat as Shreyas Iyer exited the pitch, leaving India at a weak 92/4. Soon after, Virat Kohli and Ravichandran Ashwin suffered dismissals. Despite this, the wicketkeeper-batter managed to collaborate with Shardul Thakur (24) for a vital 43-run effort. Once their seam-bowling teammate got dismissed, Rahul’s batting performance took a more assertive turn.

The former cricketer and current analyst further stated that the Karnataka batsman spared India’s pride. He declared:
Chopra also commended Shardul Thakur for providing Rahul with much-needed assistance. He did, however, add that the all-round player might have performed even better, pointing out that he lost his wicket due to a careless shot.
