KL Rahul Role in India Test Team
KL Rahul Role in India Test Team has become a focal speculation following a disappointing performance against New Zealand and Bangladesh.
KL Rahul’s recent disappointing performance in the ongoing Test series against New Zealand in MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai not only raised rumors but also sparked concerns about his ability to contribute effectively at crucial moments in the game.
As the team guides a challenging landscape with emerging talents and established players like Sarfaraz Khan and Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rahul’s role is progressively under scrutiny.
Additionally, India will play the second Test starting on the 24th of October at Maharashtra Cricket Association in Pune against New Zealand, so they could make a few changes in the lineup.

Notably, Shubman Gill, who was suffering from a stiff neck and missed the first Test, is somebody who is under the spotlight especially after Sarfaraz Khan hit a remarkable 150 in Gill’s absence. It will be quite hard for Rohit Sharma to not retain Sarfaraz after such a performance, which means KL Rahul has to go to make way for Gill.
KL Rahul’s recent Test performances have raised concerns about his position in India’s team, with 2,981 runs in 91 innings and a batting average of 33.87.
KL Rahul’s Gesture: Respect or a Quiet Farewell to Test Cricket?
Following an 8-wicket defeat to New Zealand, speculation has emerged regarding KL Rahul’s potential retirement from Test cricket. The rumors gained traction after a video clip went viral across various social media platforms.
In the footage, captured immediately after the conclusion of the first Test match, KL Rahul is seen touching the surface of the pitch in a gesture that many fans interpreted as a sign of respect to the ground.
This seemingly simple act has torched a wave of speculation about his future in the format, with some supporters expressing concerns that he may be considering stepping away from Test cricket altogether. However, there has been no official announcement about his retirement.
