He throws the ball back inside the ropes before landing on his back.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This resulted in the two England batsman taking only two runs, while KL Rahul saved the team four runs. While team India was batting, KL Rahul was the first one to get out as he was bowled by Jofra Archer in 1.2 overs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Forgetting his batting performance, Twitteratis are lauding and praising his fielding and his quick thinking to save runs.
