KL Rahul ‘s form is questionable and to make matters worse, he was dismissed in a bizarre manner during the 2nd unofficial Test in Melbourne. On Friday, during India’s second essay, Rahul was expected to come good, but unfortunately, he found a bizarre way of getting dismissed. It was a tossed up delivery from Corey Rocchiccioli, Rahul looked to pad it. Unfortunately, the ball deflected onto his stumps and his brief stay ended. Rahul was expecting the ball will turn down the leg side without getting a touch on it and hence he did not offer a shot. But the ball found a passage through his pads onto the stumps. Rahul was dismissed for 10 runs. Here is the clip of his dismissal:

BGT PREVIEW

After winning the last two Test series on Australian soil, Rohit Sharma and his men will look to win the series but it will not be easy against the formidable hosts. India would also have their eyes on the WTC final qualification. And for that to happen, they need to beat Australia 4-0 which looks very improbable. Australia on the other hand, would look to regain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy which is now with India. The first BGT Test would be played on November 22 at Perth.
