Viral Video Of KL Rahul Clobbering A 'Classy Six' During Ind vs SA 2nd T20I In Guwahati

KL Rahul batted aggressively from the word go to put the bowlers under pressure right from the very first delivery. He played a stormy innings of 57 runs in just 28 balls.

India vs South Africa 2nd T20I: Fiery fifties from Suryakumar Yadav and Kl Rahul helped the Indian cricket team post a daunting 238 run target for South Africa in India vs South Africa 2nd T20 International on Sunday at Assam's Guwahati cricket stadium. Team  India scored 237 runs for the loss of 3 wickets in their allotted 20 overs. South Africa skipper Temba Bavuma won the toss and invited India to bat first.

Star openers KL Rahul and Rohit Sharma took the crease to start the innings for India. KL Rahul, who has been facing heat for quite some time due to a slow net run-rate, picked up from where he left off in last game. He started his innings with a boundary to set the momentum for what was about to hit the African bowlers.

KL Rahul batted aggressively from the word go to put the bowlers under pressure right from the very first delivery. He played a stormy innings of 57 runs in just 28 balls. KL Rahul targeted every South African bowler and went on to hit four classic sixes, and five brilliant fours off his bat.

Meanwhile, a video of KL Rahul's classic 'wristy six' went viral on social media. The video was even posted by the official twitter handle of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).

 

India is already leading the three-match T20I series 1-0. If India wins 2nd T20I vs South Africa, not only will the hosts seal series 2-0 but it will be the first time when team India will beat South Africa in a T20I series on home soil.
