KL Rahul, India’s top batsman, is recovering from a hamstring injury and will need to play in a practice match to prove his fitness before the Asia Cup, which begins on August 30 in Pakistan and Sri Lanka. Rahul injured his hamstring during the Indian Premier League (IPL) this year and has been out of action since. Although he has been sharing videos of himself batting and keeping on social media, his match fitness is still in question.
KL Rahul is expected to play a key role in India’s team for the upcoming Cricket World Cup, which will be held in India from October 5 to November 14. Rahul is currently recovering from a hamstring injury, but the selectors and team management want to give him the best possible chance to get fit before the World Cup.
Another injured batter, Shreyas Iyer, is also expected to be given time to recover from his shoulder surgery. Iyer’s recovery is likely to take longer than Rahul’s, but the selectors are confident that he will be fit for the World Cup.
In order to prove his fitness, Rahul will need to play in a practice match and keep wickets for 50 overs and bat for at least 30 overs in the heat. This will give the selectors a chance to assess his form and fitness in match conditions.
The Team Management is also ready to allow Kl Rahul to play as a pure batter and let Ishan Kishan handle the wicket-keeping duties.
The number 4 position has been an issue for Team India since the 2019 world cup and have tried a number of players in that position but they have still not managed to find a permanent solution for the number 4 position.
