KL Rahul was known for his marathon innings in the domestic circuit. However, the Karnataka lad showed that he can be one of the key assets in the T20 format as well. KL Rahul hit 4 fifties in the league stages and was the ideal partner that a rampaging Virat Kohli could have wished for. In the 12 matches that he played, he scored 386 runs at a staggering average of 55.14 in the league stages. More importantly, he struck the ball hard with a strike rate of 147.89. He had 16 sixes to his name in the league stages, which in itself speaks volumes for the way he adapted to the shortest format.
