India's opening batter, KL Rahul has been going through a rough patch in the last few months. Thanks to this, his batting average in Tests has dropped to 33.44 including seven hundreds. Meanwhile, during the Day Three of the second Test between India and Australia, the broadcasters made a hilarious mistake. Apparently, there mistake ensured that Rahul's batting average reads 874, much more than Sir Donald Bradman.

Not to forget, the deceased Australia legend has the highest ever batting average in Tests (99.96). Meanwhile, after watching the broadcaster's blunder, the fans have been bashing the network responsible for broadcasting India's home games over the years.

KL Rahul has Rohit Sharma's backing despite poor form

"When you are playing on pitches like these, you need to find your methods of scoring runs. Different individuals are part of this team and they will have different methods of scoring runs. We are not going to look too much into what one individual is doing. It is about how everyone needs to come together. It is a big series for us, so yeah that is my thought on KL," Rohit Sharma said in the post-match press conference.

"Of late, there has been lot of talk on his batting. But for us as team management, we always look at the potential of any individual, not just KL. I have been asked in the past about lot of players. If a guy has potential, guys will get that extended run," Rohit said.

"It is not just about KL, but anyone. If you look at couple of hundreds, he got outside India (England 2021 and SA 2022), one of the best I have seen from KL, especially the one at the Lord's. Batting on that damp pitch in England, (that too) after losing the toss and put in to bat is never easy. He (Rahul) put a great performance there and Centurion was another one. India won both those games. That is the potential he has," Rohit said.
