A few months ago, Venkatesh Prasad, who is the former cricketer of Team India, created a huge storm as he criticized KL Rahul for his poor performance. After Rahul had a torrid season earlier this year, Prasad took to social media to blast the batter. After a poor series of performances in a Test series against Australia at home, Prasad was severely critical of Rahul. Prasad tweeted, "And the torrid run continues.
It has more to do with the rigidity of the management's persistence with a player who just hasn't looked the part. No top-order batsman in at least the last 20 years of Indian cricket has played this many tests with such a low average. His inclusion is deliberately denying talented guys, in particular, an opportunity to be in the 11."
Prasad also said, "Shikhar had a test average of 40+, Mayank has a test average of 41+ with 2 double hundreds, Shubhman Gill is in sublime form, and Sarfaraz never ends his wait. Many domestic performances are constantly ignored.
KL Rahul was picked for the Asia Cup 2023 squad on Monday, and only a day later, Prasad posted an interesting update. He visited the Swami Narayan temple in New Jersey, US, with Rahul's father-in-law, Suniel Shetty, and "secretly prayed" for the cricketer, who is making a comeback from injury.
Prasad wrote on his X handle, "Visited the Swami Narayan temple in New Jersey with Anna. I prayed for the well-being of all Bharatvas and for the Indian team to do well in the World Cup. I also secretly prayed for KL to smash it to all corners, have a great World Cup, and silence his critics like me. Sab khush rahein."Visit: https://www.daddyscore.com/
