The Indian team fell behind in the third Test between India and Australia. Today is the third day of competition, but Australia is playing well. The Indian team was breathing heavily due to intermittent rains, otherwise anything could have happened. Meanwhile, KL Rahul sacrificed his life to save the game. Talking about the first innings, he was the highest scorer of the team. He missed his century but still had not less than a century in his innings. Meanwhile, Rahul equaled former captain MS Dhoni by scoring more than 50 runs. What MS Dhoni did in 96 innings, Rahul did it in just 50 innings.
KL Rahul scored 84 runs in the first innings of the third Test.
Team India is stuck in the third Test. However, KL Rahul played an important innings of 84 runs for his team. During this period, he scored 139 runs and hit 8 fours. How tight Rahul’s innings was was evident from the fact that he didn’t hit even a single six. It was KL Rahul and thanks to him, the Indian team was not far away from failure in this Test.
