NEW DELHI: Former Team India selector Sarandeep Singh feels that batter KL Rahul's form was affected after he became the captain of the Men in Blue.
"He (Rahul) is in phenomenal form in the IPL. He is a great batter but somehow he is not able to do well on SA series. It seems captaincy is putting pressure on him. The way he freely played in the IPL. He is not playing it over there in SA. The question is before going to the IPL what is your form, but great players are in the form all the time," Sarandeep told ANI.
