Asia Cup: Not Rohit-Virat, This player is the biggest match winner of Team India in Asia Cup

Former New Zealand cricketer Scott Styris believes that KL Rahul’s return to the Indian team before the Asia Cup 2022 is very good for the team. He called Rahul the match winner on the biggest forums. Rahul has been out of competitive cricket since his inclusion in the IPL 2022 Eliminator in Kolkata on May 25. But Rahul is still India’s most trusted player in the T20 format.

Will return after IPL

In the IPL, his new team Lucknow Super Giants lost to Royal Challengers Bangalore by 14 runs at the Eden Gardens. Rahul was then named as the captain for the five-match T20I series against South Africa at home in June. But Rahul’s injury ruled him out of the T20I series against South Africa at home in June. After that, he underwent injury surgery in Germany, also ruled out of the England tour.

Getting ready for the World Cup

Styris said,

‘It was probably a simple decision to pick KL Rahul in the team, which we discussed, I think it was the easiest. You see, how valuable it is for the Indian team to the management and the selectors, because he has also been made the vice-captain.

Wicketkeeper-batsman Ishan Kishan dropped from the Asia Cup. He said, ‘I think it is unfortunate for Ishan Kishan, he has the ability like Rishabh Pant, which I think should have included him in the team.’
