KL Rahul, the Kings XI Punjab skipper, struggled in the IPL 2020 clash against Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. In the past, KL Rahul has been brilliant in the powerplay, striking at nearly 150 but in IPL 2020, his strike-rate has been just over 110 in the first six overs. However, in the post-match press conference, KL Rahul said strike-rates are very over-rated and his prime focus was just to win games. The knock of 11 off 16, combined with Mayank Agarwal’s run-out for 9 dented Kings XI Punjab massively in the chase of 202. Although Nicholas Pooran smashed 77, including 28 runs in one over bowled by Abdul Samad, the game had gotten away from Kings XI Punjab.
