KL Rahul knows exactly what his team wants from him and as long as he is able to do that.

Timely half-century

Having logged only 22 runs from the first three T20 World Cup games, it was Rahul’s opportunity to do the star turn with one of his better half-centuries (50 off 32 balls) and a magnificent direct throw from the deep that became a turning point in India’s five-run victory over Bangladesh. “The team has given me a role and if I’m able to what they want, I can sleep peacefully,” the vice-captain said at the post-match conference.
