To aid ‘unlock’ struggling KL Rahul, Rahul Dravid and Rohit Sharma placed an SOS call. “This reminds me of Virat Kohli.”

After dropping KL Rahul for the T20 World Cup, two veterans delivered a message to Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid.

KL Rahul is not included in the Indian team for the T20 World Cup.

KL Rahul’s IPL 2024 campaign has been utterly depressing. On Wednesday, the wicketkeeper-batter saw the Lucknow Super Giants suffer their sixth loss of the year. With 62 balls remaining, Sunrisers Hyderabad easily won by 10 wickets in a highly one-sided match.

Rahul’s inclusion for the T20 World Cup was already in doubt before IPL 2024 because of fitness concerns, but the LSG captain expedited things. However, it turned out to be a mistake as he was left out of Team India’s team for the ICC tournament.

He could only manage 29 from 33 balls against SRH, with one four and one six, as LSG amassed 165/4 in 20 overs. In the meantime, SRH easily overcame the goal, scoring 167/0 in 9.4 overs.

After the game, West Indies great Ian Bishop offered Rahul advice and urged him to “play freely.” It just involves releasing the mental chains that hold you back and being truly ready. He needs to be ready to acknowledge, as Pat Cummins has stated, “We may lose a few games and get rolled over.” However, the second need is that in order to play that manner, you must have the resources. Due to the fact that this is how the game has often played out, you must make wise choices and just have courage. Sometimes, as the other night at the Wankhede, you’ll get a pitch that calls for a little bit more caution. However, According to the way the IPL has progressed, you have to be able to play freely and have the means to get there and do so,” he stated on ESPNcricinfo.

Mitchell McClenaghan said that Rahul had to improve if he was to carry on with his Indian career. He remarked, “I don’t know what will wake KL up to the sort of cricket he has to play moving ahead in order to be successful and to play for India, you know. I believe…”

“He’s capable,” Bishop answered.

“Absolutely he can,” McClenaghan replied in response to Bishop. He needs to get past, in my opinion, much like Virat Kohli did. You know, like you’re the only one who can score runs, so he needs to do it well. I have to score runs, and it’s okay if I don’t; I trust the other guys to finish the job. It appears as though he is carrying the entire team on his shoulders, believing that if he is out of the game, they would be far behind where they should be and that if he bats the innings, you will not score.”

“It will require excellent coaching and structure management to convey to him that we will not abandon him, even if it is a top-down message. I don’t see anything wrong with Rohit Sharma, Dravid Rahul, and others really stating, “We won’t let you go if you consistently act in this way.” He is one of the finest players out there, and he will recover from this if they can unlock it,” he continued.

Rahul has amassed 460 runs with a strike rate of 136.09 in 12 games this season. In addition, he has recorded three half-centuries.
