The India national cricket team has suffered a major blow as KL Rahul has been ruled out of the 2nd ODI against the England national cricket team at the Sophia Gardens in Cardiff on Thursday, July 16. This has opened up an opportunity for Ishan Kishan to prove his usefulness in ODIs.
After losing the toss to England captain Harry Brook, Indian captain Shubman Gill has confirmed that Rahul is not a part of the playing eleven and Ishan has been included in his place in the squad for the Cardiff ODI. Before the game, Abhishek Nair revealed how Rohit Sharma reacts to failures.
