1st Test: Rahul Is Delivering A Masterclass On How To Bat In English Conditions, Says Hussain
On Monday, Rahul held the fort with his calmness and ability to absorb pressure in the face of misbehaving balls and uneven bounce to notch up his 18th Test half-century in a session where only 63 runs were made in 24.1 overs. "He is so elegant. Even when a ball goes past the outside edge, it doesn't faze him too much. If you want to learn how to bat in English conditions, he is giving you a masterclass," said Hussain on the Sky Sports’ broadcast during lunch break, with India’s lead standing at 159 runs.
With the ball moving around and a few deliveries leaping off a length, Rahul showed restraint to weather the storm well while sharing an unbroken 61-run stand with Rishabh Pant, who provided for initial chaos before settling down to be not out on 31 off 59 deliveries.
