Right-handed batter KL Rahul disappointed in the ongoing semi-final against England in the T20 World Cup at the Adelaide Oval as he departed in the second over of the match after scoring just five runs. The right-handed batter chased a wide delivery bowled by Chris Woakes, and ended up giving a simple catch to Jos Buttler. The batter’s stay at the crease lasted just five balls, and his innings included one boundary in the first over bowled by Ben Stokes.
This is Rahul’s fourth single digit score in the five games that he has played against top eight-ranked teams in T20 World Cups.
In the 2021 T20 World Cup, he recorded scored of 3 and 18 against Pakistan and New Zealand. While in the ongoing tournament, he registered scores of 4,9 and 5 against Pakistan, South Africa and England.
After Rahul, lost his wicket early, trolls on Twitter targetted the batter for a poor show in the semi-final.
Here are some of the reactions
KL Rahul chose the big stage to show his loyalty towards the academy…He gone to pavilion after scoring gorgeous gorgeous 5 runs off just 5 balls… Professor KL on fire
We fans demand the immediate removal of Kl Rahul from every indian squad. As fans we have suffered enough because of him opening the batting for our lovely Indian team.
How many times we have to suffer?
