England v India - 3rd Vitality International T20
Lokesh Rahul- The next super-star of Indian cricket

After an amazing IPL season, Lokesh Rahul was promoted to bat at the top-order by the Indian team management. The decision was indeed a worthy one as he notched up a flamboyant hundred in the 1st match.

Since his 199 in a Test match against England in Chennai (2016), Rahul had a barren run (without a century) in international cricket for the past 2 years. Chasing an under-par total of 160, Rahul scored his 2nd T20I hundred under pressure with 10 boundaries and 5 sixes.

The scintillating knock along with Kuldeep's spell helped India clinch the 1st match against England. Although Rahul failed to capitalize on the red-hot form in the next two matches, getting out cheaply.
