In Indian cricket, for the last 3-4 years, a player's performance is constantly under question. That is KL Rahul. As brilliant as the star wicketkeeper-batsman had started his career, his current phase is going equally badly. Be it international cricket or IPL, his batting often becomes a reason for criticism. His 'timid' attitude, especially in the T20 format, has been surprising everyone. This is the reason that after getting many opportunities, he is no longer a part of the Indian T20 team but now he is desperate to make a comeback and has also expressed his intentions.

Rahul was not only out of Team India, but this time he was also released by the IPL franchise Lucknow Super Giants, for which he had captained for 3 consecutive seasons. The reason for this was said to be his slow batting. In such a situation, now Rahul is going to enter the mega auction and will be seen in a new team in the next season. It will be known later with which team Rahul will play, but he has already set a goal and this goal is to return to Team India.

The only goal is to return to Team India

Rahul revealed this in an interview given to Star Sports. This part of this interview is going viral on social media, in which Rahul talked about his T20 form. Rahul said that he has been out of Team India for some time and knows where he is at the moment in T20 cricket and what he needs to do to make a comeback. Rahul clearly told that his aim in the next IPL season is to enjoy his cricket and make a comeback in Team India as soon as possible.

KL Rahul hopefully unplugged on the field too after this.

Will catch the interview 12th November 10PM, on Star Sports. #IPLAuctionOnStar #KLRahulUnpluggedOnStar pic.twitter.com/ftLDpoExcU

It is very difficult for Rahul to make a comeback

The performance of Rahul, who played the 2021 and 2022 T20 World Cup for Team India, was not good at all. His consistent strike rate and failure in the powerplay were a cause of great concern. This was the reason why players like Shubhman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal were dropped as soon as they arrived. Then even in the T20 World Cup held this year, he was not a part of Team India and coincidentally, India also won the World Cup this time. Now with the arrival of players like Sanju Samson, Abhishek Sharma, Nitish Kumar Reddy and Ryan Parag, Rahul's path has become difficult. Will he be able to achieve his target in IPL 2025, now only this will be monitored.
