Sourav Ganguly, the former Indian cricket captain, recently spoke up on the ‘out-of-form’ KL Rahul, saying that if a player doesn’t score in India, he won’t be able to make it big in international cricket.
Ganguly, who is currently the president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), was speaking at a press conference in Kolkata. He said that Rahul, who has been struggling to find form in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL), needs to score runs in India if he wants to make it big in international cricket.
“KL Rahul is a very talented player and he has done well in the past. But he needs to score runs in India if he wants to make it big in international cricket. If you don’t score in India, you won’t be able to make it big in international cricket,” Ganguly said.
Ganguly also said that Rahul needs to work on his technique and mental approach if he wants to succeed in international cricket. He said that Rahul needs to be more consistent and should not get bogged down by failures.
“KL Rahul needs to work on his technique and mental approach. He needs to be more consistent and should not get bogged down by failures. He needs to stay positive and keep working hard,” Ganguly said.

“KL Rahul needs to be patient and should not rush into things. He needs to take his time and should not be in a hurry to score runs. He needs to be patient and should not get frustrated if he doesn’t get the desired results,” Ganguly said.
Ganguly’s words of advice come at a time when Rahul is struggling to find form in the ongoing IPL. He has scored just one half-century in the tournament so far and has failed to make an impact with the bat.
Ganguly’s words of advice will surely help Rahul in his quest to find form and make it big in international cricket. Rahul needs to take Ganguly’s words seriously and work on his technique and mental approach if he wants to succeed in international cricket.
