While it's no mean feat to score runs consistently, Rahul himself would be ruing the fact that many of these knocks didn't get the triple-figure mark they deserved. The dashing lefthander offered an interesting answer: "I was saying jokingly that if you bat like a king, you should also get out like a king, you should not be dismissed like a soldier. If you have made runs aggressively, then you will get out that way too. That's how it is. I know I am an aggressive batsman, so I would rather get out that way than getting out in the slips and being defensive because that is not my natural game."
