In match number 26 of the IPL between Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Wednesday, KL Rahul was again criticised for his restrained approach. The LSG skipper managed only 39 runs from 32 deliveries.
Former England captain Kevin Pietersen, who was commentating during the game, expressed his frustration with Rahul’s lack of aggression, saying, “Watching KL Rahul bat is the most boring thing I have ever been through.” This comment has sparked a debate among fans and pundits about Rahul’s approach to batting.
🗣 "Watching KL Rahul bat in the powerplays is the most boring thing I have ever been through."
