KL Rahul has been excluded from the Rajkot Test against England due to concerns regarding his fitness, with Padikkal being announced as his replacement.
KL Rahul, who had missed the second Test match in Vizag due to a quadricep issue, has unfortunately been ruled out of the upcoming Rajkot Test match. This comes as a major setback for India, as Rahul had showcased his exceptional skills in the first Test match in Hyderabad. Despite his recent comeback into the squad for the last three Test matches, Rahul’s fitness concerns have forced him to sit out of the game.
