[IPL]- KL Rahul became furious with Mayank Agarwal after hitting a six against Sunrisers Hyderabad
KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal became the new cricketing pair to join in a live chat with Instagram. David Warner’s likes, Jonny Bairstow, Virat Kohli, Ab de Villiers, have already caught the attention of the public during the quarantine, with their funny conversations. The young Indian duo debated a host of topics, among which Mayank Agarwal remembered an incident when KL Rahul get angry with him.
Mayank and Rahul probably share an amicable relationship because they played together in the domestic circuit for Karnataka and in the Indian Premier League for Kings XI Punjab. Mayank stirred up the talk to Rahul’s captaincy hilariously as he was to serve as one ahead of the 2020 season that is now postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“I was looking forward to seeing you this year as captain of the team. You’re already getting upset on the field too many times, so I don’t know how you’re going to react when you’re going to become captain,” Mayank said.
“Because you’re doing stupid stuff on the field, I’m just getting angry with you,” Rahul was swift to respond before Mayank shared an exciting episode against Sunrisers.
Rahul then explained what caused an angry reaction from him as he told Mayank how he ignored his advice and wanted to play a risky shot when it wasn’t necessary for the run chase as Kings XI Punjab was in a comfortable position and the target wasn’t big.
“That was dumb cricket. You got a six, I understand, but that was a dangerous shot, and we did not attempt a 190, we trying to get 140, and we were cruising along, and I didn’t want to lose a wicket at the time. Before the act, I told you very unquestionably that if you’re going to take a chance, hit a 4. I say 5sec after, and then you go and try to hit the first mid-wicket ball, and that’s the long side of the field, and I think you’ve just got Vijay Shankar away. Not even obvious, if he had been on the line, he could easily have taken the catch. “Rahul said.
