Indian batter KL Rahul has finally got his form after a string of low scores in the ongoing T20 World Cup. He scored a 32-ball fifty against Bangladesh on Wednesday. Rahul alongside Kohli built a partnership of 105 runs.
Just before this innings, Rahul recorded scores of 4, 9, and 9 in the three matches. Rahul spoke about his innings and said, “Been mixed feelings. I got some good knocks before coming to Australia. But the first three games haven't gone my way. I think I was doing a lot of things right. I wasn't worried about missing out in the last three games. I am happy I got a good inning under my belt. We will have to bowl well with the new ball. Some wickets might put pressure on them.”
India ended up winning the match with the help of brilliant knocks from Rahul and Kohli. The former Indian skipper also scored 64 off 44 balls at the Adelaide Oval. The Men in Blue are now placed at the top of the Group 2 table.
The Indian team batted first and scored 184/6 in 20 overs. In reply to that, Litton Das starred with the bat for Bangladesh as he made 60 runs in just 27 balls. Rain played spoilsport and then the officials decided to reduce the overs and it turned out to be a 16-over game. The Bangla tigers have then given the target of 151 runs.
