"Obviously, I am very disappointed but there are a lot of things I am doing right so I just have to keep my head down and show some more patience," Rahul told the media at the end of Day 3 of the first Test.

Rahul though feels he has been batting well. "I just have to prolong the good things that I am doing until I get to 35 and 45. I have been batting well and look comfortable in both the innings. Headspace and everything is very good so I am happy about a lot of things," the opener expressed.

"If I can keep patience and keep batting the way I do in the first 60-80 balls till 200-250 balls, then it will benefit me and the team and I am looking to do that in the next match," Rahul added.

Rahul's stay was cut short by Roston Chase. The India opener went across while trying for a sweep shot and exposed the three stumps. The West Indian spinner's ball stuck as Rahul failed to connect.
