KL Rahul is one of the most stylish and talented batsmen India has produced in the past decade. What makes Rahul stand out is his adaptability to bat in various positions across all three formats.

In 2023, he was assigned the middle-order role, where he excelled during the Asia Cup and the World Cup that year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
