Five matches between India and Australia from November 22 test series Border-Gavaskar Trophy will be played for which preparations Indian team Middle order batsman KL Rahul is playing an unofficial test match for India A against Australia A. Meanwhile, a bad news has come for the Indian fans, because KL Rahul has also flopped badly against Australia A.
Yes, that is what has happened. KL Rahul came to open for India A at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on Thursday, 7 November. But here he could stay on the field for only 4 balls and lost his wicket after scoring only 4 runs. Australia A fast bowler Scott Boland made him his victim by getting him caught out. It is noteworthy that KL Rahul’s current form has become a big matter of concern for Team India.
Recently, KL Rahul was also dropped in the home Test series against New Zealand. He failed in the first Test against New Zealand and was able to score only 12 runs in the 2nd innings of the Bengaluru Test. Also know that there is a question mark over the availability of captain Rohit Sharma for the initial matches of Border Gavaskar Trophy. In such a situation, if he does not play this match, then KL Rahul or Abhimanyu Easwaran can be seen opening for Team India. However, both of them have disappointed against Australia A in Melbourne. Where KL Rahul is out after scoring 4 runs. Easwaran lost his wicket on the score of zero.
If we talk about the second unofficial match being played in Melbourne, then Australia A won the toss and decided to bowl first, after which the top order of India A got scattered like a deck of cards. However, after this, Dhruv Jurel scored 80 runs facing 186 balls, due to which India A managed to score 161 runs on the score board before being all out. In such a situation, it will be very interesting to see whether India A bowlers can do something amazing or not.
