KL Rahul put up an all round performance as a wicketkeeper batsman during India’s 36 run win over Australia in the second ODI in Rajkot on Friday.

KL Rahul smashed a rapid 80 runs of just 52 deliveries and also completed a sharp stumping off Ravindra Jadeja’s delivery to dismiss dangerman Aaron Finch. Following the win, KL Rahul took to his official Instagram handle to share a few pictures from the second ODI.


Soon after KL Rahul posted the picture, Athiya Shetty, daughter of actor Sunil Shetty, posted a heart emoji on the post, which gave way to several replies from fans.

Besides Athiya Shetty, Bollywood star Ranveer Singh also commended KL Rahul’s innings on Friday.

"The Boss Blade," Ranveer Singh commented on KL Rahul’s Instagram post.
