On current form, KL Rahul is probably the best Indian batsman right now. Rahul won the Orange Cap in the 13th edition of the IPL and scored a gargantuan 670 runs in the tournament. Even in the international arena, Rahul’s willow has done the talking. The right-hander averages 53.83 in T20Is played in 2020 (till now), has scored 3 fifties in the 7 innings that he has played in 2020 for India and played a pivotal role in India whitewashing New Zealand in the T20 series in the land of the kiwis.

Even in the year 2019, Rahul scored 356 runs at an average of 44.50. The dashing batsman scored 4 fifties at a strike rate of over 140 last year. He has also scored 2 hundreds for the ‘Men in Blue’ in T20I cricket. Rahul can also keep wickets and can do decent work with the gloves as well.

He has now also been elevated to the role of Vice-Captain for the limited-overs series against Australia. The right-hander would be looking to score more runs and prove to the selectors that he is a man in whom they can invest on.
