India were asked to bat in tough conditions. However, KL Rahul trusted his defence and saw off the new-ball spells from the England quicks. Raja lauded the 28-year-old for the way he showed patience and respected the conditions.
In a video on his YouTube channel, Ramiz Raja explained how well KL Rahul played under challenging conditions.
KL Rahul has set a great platform for India: Ramiz Raja
KL Rahul, who remained unbeaten on 127 at the end of play on Thursday, will look to build on the strong foundation and score more runs. India finished the day at 276-3 and Raja feels Rahul’s knock has put the visitors in a great position to call the shots.
The former Pakistan batsman feels that if India are able to reach a score of 350-450 runs, then it would be difficult for a relatively weak England batting unit to make a strong comeback in the Test.
The first session on Day 2 will be crucial as England will look to pick up early wickets. India, on the other hand, would want KL Rahul to continue his superb innings and help the team post a huge total.
