#4 Miss: Rahul at No.3
This has been a breakthrough year for KL Rahul with his performances in the IPL widely appreciated by many critics and legends alike.
His shot-making ability is second to none and his incredible form and ability to turn the match in a few overs made Kohli choose him over the more experienced Pujara.
But he failed to fulfill his captain’s faith in him with meager outcomes with the bat in both the innings.
His dismissal in the first innings was disappointing as he chased down a wide delivery and played a drive with little feat movement and saw his stumps castled.
If he has to survive in England, he has to curb his natural instincts and learn to respect the conditions early in his innings.
