Speaking to India Today, Sunil Gavaskar hoped that KL Rahul can turn it around when it comes to captaincy for the sake of the Indian team. Gavaskar said that Rahul looked out of ideas whenever South Africa put on a partnership.
He said, “Well, when there is a partnership, sometimes the captain goes out of ideas. I think that is what happened. This was a very good pitch to bat on. The ball was coming onto the bat quite nicely, you can play through the line.”
Gavaskar added, “During that partnership, it did look as if he had run out of ideas. KL Rahul didn’t know where to go. When you have your two-most experienced death-overs bowlers in Bumrah and Bhuvneshwar, you have to keep them for the last 5-6 overs.
“So that’s where you can actually stop the opposition from running away with a big score. But these are early days of his captaincy and maybe things will turn around, let’s hope for Indian cricket’s sake that things turn around in the next couple of days,” he added.
