KL Rahul came in from harsh criticism by former India medium pacer Venkatesh Prasad who claimed the opener's selection was based on "favoritism."
Rahul, 30, was picked ahead of in-form Shubman Gill as he continued his woeful form scoring just 20 runs. "Rahul's selection is not based on performance, but favouritism. Has been consistently inconsistent and for someone who has been around for eight years not converted potential into performances," Prasad wrote on Twitter.
