Cardiff, May 29 (CRICKETNMORE): K.L. Rahul's century in the second warm-up game against Bangladesh in Cardiff on Tuesday had skipper Virat Kohli grinning. After all, the jigsaw of who will bat at no.4 for India in the World Cup has been sorted for now. Even though the national selectors led by M.S.K. Prasad had decided to pick him as the reserve opener, the team management felt otherwise and Rahul is open to any role in the team.
"It is a team game, and you need to be flexible and be ready to bat wherever, or as a player you need to be ready to take up whatever role is given to you," he said. "Every batsman who has played at this level knows how to handle pressure and knows how to handle the roles and responsibilities given to him."
Indecent comments in a chat show had seen Rahul being suspended from the national team. While he has generally refused to speak on the same, the batsman did open up about the episode and said that the time away from the game helped him work on little areas that he felt he could improve on.
