K.L. Rahul had not even carried his kit bag to the R. Premadasa Stadium on Sunday, with India’s team management having decided to pace the man on a comeback mission slowly in the Asia Cup, with an eye on the World Cup, starting in three weeks.
With Shreyas Iyer breaking down with a back spasm minutes before the toss against Pakistan, the team manager had to rush back to the hotel to get Rahul’s kit bag.
