KL Rahul has faced a lot of criticism recently for his low strike rate in T20 cricket at the top of the order and rightly so, Rahul strike rate has seen a significant drop in last year or so. However, once he gets going and is set, there are very few people who can match his class and Rahul has also shown his ability to go big time and again.

In the game 26 of IPL 2023 between RR and LSG at Jaipur, KL Rahul once again failed to get going initially in his innings and at the end of seven overs, KL Rahul was batting on 24 off 23 balls. However, Rahul is known for bringing out a big shot out of nowhere in his knocks which often has left fans awestruck. The same thing happened in the 9th over of RR-LSG game when Rahul out of nowhere brought out a killer slog-sweep which went almost out of the ground travelling 103 metres away against the purple-cap holder, Yuzvendra Chahal.

However, just when KL Rahul was about to explode, he holed out at long on while trying to tonk Jason Holder down the ground. At the time of writing, LSG are 86-2 at the end of 12th over with Kyle Mayers batting on 39 off 35 balls alongside Hooda.
