KL Rahul was a bit taken aback when asked if Virat Kohli, who struck his maiden T20I century during Asia Cup match against Afghanistan, should continue to bat as an opener going into cricket World Cup alongside Rohit Sharma.
With Rohit Shama opting out of inconsequential contest against Afghanistan, Virat Kohli opened the batting with Rahul.
The question was loaded because if Kohli opens the batting, it would mean that Rahul, whose T20 batting approach is already under the scanner, would have to sit out.
