Talking about the season’s performance, Rahul admitted, “It’s been a frustrating one. We looked strong at the beginning, but injuries played a role, just like in any team.

We just weren’t consistent enough. The win against Mumbai was a good one, that’s the kind of cricket we wanted to play more of, but unfortunately, it wasn’t meant to be.”

The Franchise Put in A Lot Of Time And Effort With Them:-

Showering praise on the Indian pacers, Rahul highlighted the franchise’s investment in their training. “Really happy for the young fast bowlers. The franchise put in a lot of time and effort with them.

IPL is only a two-month window, you see? We sent Mayank and Yudhvir to train under Morné Morkel in South Africa. Their hard work paid off, but a lot of credit goes to the franchise and the team for working with them.”

Maybe I’ll play the middle order, maybe not.” With a good break ahead, expect to see Rahul focusing on his fitness as well.
