SA vs IND: Who will be the wicketkeeper, KL Rahul or KS Bharat? Team India's head coach replied

 

The Indian Cricket Team is currently on a tour of South Africa. On this tour, the team has to play a two-match Test series from December 26. For which the Indian team is preparing vigorously. Before this Test series, Ishan Kishan has withdrawn his name due to personal reasons. In his place, KS Bharat has been added to India's Test team. However, questions were being raised about who would do wicketkeeping in the first match of the series, KS Bharat or KL Rahul. Now Indian team head coach Rahul Dravid has answered this question.

Rahul Dravid, who attended the press conference before the start of the Test series, told that KL Rahul will be seen keeping wickets in the first match. Rahul Dravid said that 'This will be a very exciting series and will definitely be an opportunity for KL Rahul to do something different. Apparently, after Ishan Kishan's exit, he has got a chance to join here. We already have a few keepers we can choose from. Rahul is definitely one of them. This thing has been discussed with us and he is very confident. He is very keen on this.

It is clear from Rahul Dravid's words that KL Rahul can be seen keeping wickets during the first test match. Rahul Dravid further said that 'KL Rahul has prepared well. He has done a lot of wicketkeeping in the last 5-6 months. Even though it is a limited overs format, it will be a new and exciting challenge for him. I think another thing here is that the ball is not going to spin much here. Therefore, there will be some ease in his role.
