    "editor1": "<p><strong>New Delhi, Jan 26: <\/strong>India opener K.L. Rahul once again starred with the bat as his unbeaten 57 guided India to comfortable seven-wicket win over New Zealand in the second tie of the T20I series and former cricketer VVS Laxman took no time to acknowledge the Karnataka batter&#39;s effort.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>As soon as the Men in Blue won the match, Laxman took to Twitter and said he was impressed with Rahul&#39;s versatility. Rahul, who had earlier scored 56 in the first T20I at the same venue, has also been doing good work behind the stumps.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Over 300 runs for KL Rahul in his last 5 T20 innings. Very impressed with the versatility that he has shown and adapted to different positions and roles. Great support from Shreyas Iyer,&quot; Laxman tweeted.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;But this win was set up by the bowlers who did not let NZ bataman to get away #IndvsNZ,&quot; he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Chasing a modest 136, the Indians were jolted early with Tim Southee (2\/20) removing Rohit Sharma (8) and Virat Kohli (11) early. However, Rahul and Shreyas, who contributed with 44 runs off 33 balls, ensured the visitors cross the line with ease.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Rahul&#39;s knock, which came off 50 balls, smashed three boundaries and couple of sixes.<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
