BENGALURU: The tale of the two Rahuls in the Indian team is riveting. They are stars of two eras, contrasting in style and traits. The senior Rahul is devoid of bombast, clean-shaven, allergic to social media, a man with an eye for detail. He carries his 24,208 international runs with the same grace and poise with which he played on the world stage for over 15 years.
The younger Rahul is heavily tattooed, social media savvy and sports a beard with which he makes a style statement. None of this takes anything away from the quality cricketer he is or the spirit with which he has rewritten his injury-plagued career.
