One of the most pleasing sights in the recently-concluded Indian Premier League (IPL) 2018 was KL Rahul’s strokeplay. With India’s middle-order woes getting worse, Rahul hopes a successful IPL stint will help him cement his place in the side and he is even ready to shoulder the responsibility of a finisher. The game changes with every ball and one needs to adjust his game according to what the team needs. Whatever cricket I played for India in the last 2-3 years, I used that experience in this IPL (2018) and played with a clear mind,” Rahul, who has played 10 ODIs, said in a media interaction in Mohali. We will be playing the T-20 and ODI series before the Test series and it will help us acclimatise to the conditions first.
