India vs West Indies: Lokesh Rahul Flops With The Bat Again, Twitter Breaks Down

KL Rahul faced the wrath of angry fans on social media.

Indian batsman KL Rahul yet again failed to grab his chance as his slump in form continued in the second Test against West Indies in Hyderabad on Saturday. The ongoing home series against the Windies was an opportunity for the Indian batsmen to make amends for their lack of form in the tough away England series.

However, with scores of 0 and 4 in both Tests, KL Rahul seems to have blown away his chance to cement his place in the Indian squad in the ongoing Test, KL Rahul could not gauge Windies skipper Jason Holder’s delivery and was clean bowled for 4 runs. Social media was livid with his batting performance and their anger was visible on Twitter.
