‘Thank you Ajit Agarkar’: KL Rahul brutally roasted for his 33-ball 29 as Sunrisers Hyderabad floor Lucknow Super Giants | Cricket News

NEW DELHI: On a batting surface at the Uppal Stadium in Hyderabad where Sunrisers openers Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma mercilessly slaughtered Lucknow Super Giants bowlers, KL Rahul was among the visiting’s batters, who terribly flopped with the bat.
As Rahul’s LSG opted to bat, scared that a high-flying Sunrisers might put up a massive total on the board batting first, they shot themselves in the foot, managing a mediocre 165.And even getting to 165 at one stage looked a distant dream as Lucknow found themselves tottering at 66 for 4 in the 12th over.
Amid a top-order flop show by LSG batters, Rahul scored a scratchy 33-ball 29 while his opening partner Quinton de Kock fell for 2. No.3 Marcus Stoinis made just three while Krunal Pandya contributed 24 to the total.
Skipper Rahul’s horrendous show, in particular, hogged the limelight as fans brutally trolled him for his poor form with the bat.
Recently, KL Rahul was denied a ticket to upcoming T20 World Cup in the Americas as Ajit Agarkar-led selection committee ignored him in the 15-man squad.

In reply to LSG’s 165, Sunrisers hunted down the target inside 10 overs — becoming the fastest to chase 160+ total in the history of the league.
While Head smashed 89* off 30, Abhishek – fired 28-ball 75 not out in the win.
The win took SRH to the third spot on the points table.
