Cricket
KL Rahul’s century knock certainly puts Ajinkya Rahane and perhaps Cheteshwar Pujara in an uncomfortable position. To be honest, there are no assured slots in the five Tests, but maybe a few more daddy hundreds, if he does get a go, will surely help KL Rahul break into the side.

For a man who has been a bench-warmer on the last couple of tours, KL Rahul's ton gives his chances of making the final XI a huge boost. Those who believe in the Karnataka batsman's ability will feel this is enough to get a shot at at least two Tests out of five.
This is the way to go
