Touted as one of the finest batters in Indian cricket at present, KL Rahul hasn't had things going his way for a long time. The opening batter lost his place in the Indian Test team during the Australia series and question marks remain over his place in the team in other formats too. Over the last few months, Rahul has also seen himself being severely criticised by a few former players, especially Venkatesh Prasad.

India opening batter KL Rahul has been receiving a lot of flak from the fans and former cricketers for his back-to-back failed performances. The 30-year-old cricketer disappointed everyone with his flop shows during the first two Tests against Australia, which even cost him his position of the vice-captain for the remaining two Tests. As the series against Australia is going to end on March 22, Rahul will be gearing up for the upcoming edition of the Indian Premier League, where he will be leading Lucknow Super Giants.
