Watson wants the opener to play at the T20 World Cup beginning later this month. Rahul's strike rate came under scanner during the Asia Cup and the ongoing home series against South Africa. Though India had to chase down only 107 in the first T20 against the Proteas, questions were raised over Rahul's intent as he ended with 51 not out off 56 balls. Speaking to PTI, Watson said Rahul needs to be aggressive from ball one in the World Cup Down Under. "KL Rahul is one of my favourite batters. To me when he is batting at his best, when he is aggressive, he takes the game on and is not trying to control the game. "He has got that skill, when he is just reacting to the ball coming down, he has all the shots all around the ground against the best bowlers in the world. "I love seeing him when he feels like he's got nothing to lose, then he can even strike at 180 without taking too much risk. If he is able to do that (in Australia), there will be a lot of bowlers in trouble," said one of the best all-rounders to have played for Australia. Watson is currently in India for Legends League Cricket.

'He is being assessed, we are hopeful, not everything will be perfect'GUWAHATI: As India fret over how serious bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah's stress fracture injury is, head coach Rahul Dravid is hoping that the bowler manages to make it to T20 World Cup Down Under starting on October 16.
Bumrah's injury has added to the confusion over team combination as hosts gear up for 2nd T2OI vs SAGUWAHATI: With the match scheduled in the middle of Durga Puja, the traffic in the city here, and around Barsapara Cricket Stadium in particular, on the eve of the second T20 International match between India and South Africa, was clogged. The situation quite resembled the state of India's team combination right now.
