The latest person to praise KL Rahul is former England captain David Gower. During the first India vs England Test at Trent Bridge, Rahul scored a hard-working 84-run knock in the first innings to hand India an advantage early on in the match. But as a batsman, you have to keep your own self-belief and I think that's what Rahul did very well. Not to get down and think you are playing badly when the conditions are favouring the bowlers, I think that's one of the things he did exceptionally well," 64-year-old Gower. The second Test between India and England begins on Thursday, August 12 at Lord's.
