Mr. Sourav Ganguly, the former Presiden t of Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI,) isn’t surprised at the criticism former Vice Captain K.L. Rahul has been getting.
On the 27th of February, Monday, Sourav Ganguly addressed the media and said, “When you fail for a while, obviously there will be criticism.” He further added, “When you don’t score runs in India, obviously you will get flak. KL Rahul hasn’t been the only one. There have been players in the past also.”
On the sidelines of a Delhi Capitals pre-season camp, Mr. Sourav Ganguly said, “There’s so much focus and attention with lot of pressure on players. The team management thinks he is an important player for the team. At the end of the day, what coach and captain thinks is important.”
In the ongoing series against Australia, Rahul, opening the innings alongside Rohit Sharma, has returned scores of 20, 17 and 1. His last half-century came in Johannesburg in January 2022, the same series in which he scored his last Test century. Overall, after 47 Tests, he has an average of 33.44, which dips to 13.57 in the last 12 months.
Notably, the poor performance of K.L. Rahul in the India V/S Australia Test Match, created controversy and gained criticism, putting pressure on selectors, tp remove him as VC. The pressure intensified with the urge of removing recently wedded K.L. Rahul from the Indian squad for the Indian V/S Australia test match.
