#1 Batting position of KL Rahul and Virat Kohli
Perhaps the biggest question in every cricket fan's mind right now is where will KL Rahul bat in this series. With the kind of form Rahul has shown lately, he is an automatic selection in the playing 11. Traditionally an opener, KL Rahul might not get to bat at his preferred number, since Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan have done quite a good job for the team while opening the innings.
This means that Rahul could come in at No.3. But here is the catch- India's run machine Virat Kohli has had a great run at No. 3 for India which makes Rahul's position a little more problematic.
However, from what one witnessed in the T20Is, Rahul might just walk in ahead of the skipper in the ODI series as well.
