Sri Lanka vs India 2017: 5 Indian players to watch out for in the ODI series

#4 KL Rahul

A long injury layoff did not do him any favours but he is now fit and raring to go

The talk going around in Indian cricketing circles is that KL Rahul one of the most prolific young talents they have unearthed who could be a mainstay in the Indian middle order. Having graduated successfully from the IPL to international cricket, Rahul is one of the few young players who now play in all three formats for India.

A batsman with a classic technique and temperament, the greatest thing about Rahul is that he knows how to shift a gear from Tests to ODIs and looks comfortable in every format and every situation.

A long injury layoff did not do him any favours but he is now fit and raring to go. This might well be the series when Rahul firmly establishes himself in the Indian middle order. He will certainly be one of the players to watch out for.
