My Favorite Is KL Rahul – Brian Lara
Speaking to Sportstar magazine he said, “I follow the West Indies as you know. They did pretty well in Sri Lanka in the T20 version of the game. Around the world, there are so many amazing batsmen to look at. There is Steve Smith, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma. My favorite is KL Rahul.”
KL Rahul was in tremendous form in the recently concluded New Zealand tour. He has excelled in his new role as a wicketkeeper. He batted well when sent as an opener or in the middle order.
