Asia Cup: Can KL Rahul regain his form from Hong Kong clash?

India will play Hong Kong in their second and last group league game of the Asia Cup today, providing KL Rahul with the ideal opportunity to regain his momentum. On the day of the game, there will likely be a high of 35°C, 45% humidity, and a wind speed of 16 km/h. Precipitation is not expected during the game.

Rahul, whose first T20I in 2022 took place last night against Pakistan, would like to start strong and might use this chance to adopt a different batting strategy than his IPL approach. KL Rahul entered the practise nets at the ICC Academy while the sunset sun slanting into his silhouette. An Indian support staff member yelled out a warning to two strong guards to get out of the way. He will hit the ball in your direction, so be careful. They cautiously backed off and hid behind the sight-screen, but every so often they would come out to catch a peek of his batting.
