Well, it is difficult to think otherwise as KL Rahul has been in some red-hot form lately. The star opener scored 315 runs off four tests in England, including a century at the iconic Lord’s Cricket Ground, where team India registered a memorable win. He also emerged out as third highest run-scorer tallying 626 runs, behind Ruturaj Gaikwad and Faf du Plessis.

In the just-concluded India’s campaign in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2021, KL Rahul missed out scoring against Pakistan and New Zealand, but ended the campaign on a good note, smashing three back-to-back half-centuries against Afghanistan (69), Scotland (54) and Namibia (50*).

Meanwhile, KL Rahul has been named as India’s vice-captain in T20i series against New Zealand, which will kickstart from November 17th in India.
