KL Rahul last played for Team India against the Aussies in the home ODI series
KL Rahul last played for India in Tests in the first two matches of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy at home. After failing to score big, the team management decided to drop him and Shubman Gill replace him in the playing XI. After that, he played in the three-match ODI series against the Aussies at home. Then, he was the skipper of Luckow Super Giants (LSG) in the IPL 2023 and played nine games before getting injured. In those games, he scored 274 runs, at an average of 34.25, including two fifties.
After the injury, KL Rahul had a successful surgery and now, he is on the road of getting recovered fully. Speaking of the image, Rahul wrote: “Starting to feel like me again”. On 25 June, an image went viral where Rahul was visiting the Sri Kshetra Dharmasthala Manjunatha Swamy temple in Dharmasthala, Karnataka. However, Rahul’s form was a concern for the team and fans before getting injured. So, fans were surprised to see him getting a place in the WTC final squad. However, he missed it and Ishan Kishan replaced him. But, KS Bharat got the nod and played the final against the Aussies.
