KL Rahul last 10 innings in Tests: KL Rahul last 10 Test innings full score list [UPDATED]

During the second day of the second Test match of the ongoing India’s tour of Bangladesh in Mirpur, India captain KL Rahul was the first batter to get out without adding a lot to his overnight score.

Resuming from his overnight score of 3*, Rahul added seven more runs as he was dismissed for 10 (45) in an innings which lacked any sort of conviction. It all happened on the first delivery of the 13th over when Rahul walked down the track only to unsuccessfully defend a delivery from left-arm spinner Taijul Islam.

Been hit on the pad right in front of the stumps, Rahul survived at first as the on-field umpire ruled the decision in his favour. Having said that, a confident Islam convincing captain Shakib Al Hasan for a DRS resulted in the third umpire overturning the original decision. With the ball clearly hitting the stumps, Rahul had no option than to walk back dejected to the pavilion.

Although a fortunate Rahul had witnessed the DRS working in his favour last evening, he wasn’t particularly lucky on Day 2 at the Shere Bangla National Stadium.

A classic case of “one brings two” in cricket, Islam was successful enough to find Shubman Gill (20) wanting in front of the stumps in his fourth over of the day after made to open the bowling with pacer Khaled Ahmed. With Gill missing making contact with the ball whilst wanting to play a sweep shot, he didn’t even bother to opt for a DRS.

KL Rahul last 10 innings in Tests score list (updated on February 19, 2023)

In his last 10 Test innings beginning from the second innings of the second Test against South Africa in Johannesburg last year, Rahul has scored 125 runs at an unacceptable average of 12.50. Rahul, who hasn’t crossed the 50-run mark in this period, has a highest score of 23.

With his 10th failure in a row today, it will be interesting to see if he is named in the Indian squad for the third and fourth Tests against Australia. His last 10 Test innings are:

1 (3) vs Australia at Arun Jaitley Stadium

17 (41) vs Australia at Arun Jaitley Stadium

20 (71) vs Australia at Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium

2 (7) vs Bangladesh at Shere Bangla National Stadium

10 (45) vs Bangladesh at Shere Bangla National Stadium
