Australia v India - 4th Test: Day 3

After an unfortunate start to his test career, KL Rahul's career took off after scoring a sublime 110 runs. Over the next few months, he would maintain a conversion rate in tests that batsman dream about.

But it had to take a beating and then followed a period of 7 50+ scores in consecutive innings in tests. It did pretty much mess up his conversion rate but his technique of playing inside the line and staying at the crease for long hours made him an ideal opener

He will complement Alastair Cook well in the opening position and his ability to leave the balls will be enough to manage the initial tricky hours of the test match that are conducive for bowling.
