KL Rahul's struggles just don't seem to end. In the ongoing second Test against Australia A at the MCG, Rahul's bizarre dismissal in the second innings left fans stunned and fuming. After a low score of just 4 in the first innings, everyone expected him to step up in the second. But his dismissal had people shaking their heads.

The dismissal was one for the books. On the first ball of the 18th over, Corey Rocchiccioli bowled a good-length off-break on the middle stump. Rahul thought it would turn, so he decided to leave it. 

But the ball held its line and hit his back pad before crashing into the stumps. Rahul had to take the long walk back with just ten runs off 44 balls. Talk about a brain-fade moment.

Social media lit up with fans venting their frustration. Many found it odd and questioned why Rahul left a straight ball. Some were baffled, calling it a weird dismissal, while others said he should take a break and return when he's in better form. The criticism was swift, with fans saying he needs to get his act together.

Here's a look at how fans reacted to KL Rahul's wicket:






With Rohit Sharma likely to miss the first game in the upcoming series, there's been talk of promoting Rahul to the top order. That's why he was asked to open in this Test. But after this, it's looking doubtful if he'll be ready to step up.

Meanwhile, it’s not just Rahul who’s struggling. The whole India A innings is in a bit of a mess. They finished at 73/5 at Stumps on Day 2, with only an 11-run lead. Nitish Reddy and Dhruv Jurel are at the crease, trying to add to the lead and give Australia A a competitive target.

As things stand, Rahul's form is adding pressure, not just on him but on the team as well. Fans will be hoping he can turn it around soon because time is running out.
