IND vs WI: Rahul Wants To Make Most Of Opportunities, Not Worry About WC
Rahul, who was promoted as an opener in the absence of injured Shikhar Dhawan, played an electrifying 40-ball 62 to help India edge Windies in a high scoring series opener at Hyderabad
KL Rahul who has been an integral part of India's T20 unit over the past few seasons said on Saturday that he is looking to make the most of the opportunities in the shorter format but doesn't want to worry about sealing his T20 World Cup berth.
The India team is taking one series at a time to prepare hard and get their combination right for next year's T20 World Cup in Australia. Many players, whose places are not yet secured in the playing eleven, are trying to put out impressive performances in the ongoing series against West Indies to draw the attention of the selectors.
Rahul, who was promoted as an opener in the absence of injured Shikhar Dhawan, grasped the chance with both hands by scoring a 40-ball 62 to help India record their highest successful run chase in a T20 International, beating West Indies by six wickets in the first game on Friday.
"It's (T20 Wolrd Cup) a long way honestly. I have got the opportunity to bat top of the order again after a couple of series, so looking forward to just making the best use of it," Rahul said at the post match press conference.
"Today was a good outing, good hit in the middle and hopefully I can continue the same thing without worrying about October next year. There are a lot of games before that."
