Former Indian cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar believes that right-hand batter KL Rahul is not the ideal option for India's opening slot in the first Test of the upcoming five-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 against Australia as he doesn't have a lot of confidence in himself at the moment. The first Test of the highly-anticipated Border-Gavaskar Trophy will be played at Perth's Optus Stadium from November 22 onwards. "It's not like KL Rahul as an opening option is setting the stage on fire. Going by the reality, KL Rahul currently you can see, you've got to feel for him, I love him as a player the kind of talent he has. He looks a bit down on confidence and you don't want someone like him batting at the top of the order because much of the tempo of the innings is set at the start number 1,2 and 3," Manjrekar was quoted as saying by ESPNcricinfo.

The legendary Sunil Gavaskar is confident that the stylish KL Rahul can excel on Australian tracks just like he did in South Africa last year. With Rohit Sharma on a paternity break, India have a choice between reserve opener Abhimanyu Easwaran and the seasoned Rahul for partnering Yashasvi Jaiswal in the opening Test starting in Perth on Friday. As of now, the team management is keen on Rahul, who has opened a fair bit for India in Test matches and scored a memorable hundred at Centurion last year. However, he has not been able to find consistency despite featuring in 53 Tests.
Just before the start of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test series between India and Australia, a new and unprecedented problem came to the forefront - the threat of rain. As per reports, Perth, an area that generally does not receive any rainfall between November and May, was predicted to receive rainfall right on the week of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. The threat of rain even brought the possibility of 'snake cracks' forming on the pitch at the Optus Stadium, where the first Test will be held. But recent weather forecasts show that rain is unlikely to hamper the first Test.
