KL Rahul IND vs AUS 3rd Test in SENA Country: KL Rahul has overtaken Indian greats Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli in terms of the highest Test average in SENA (South Africa, England, New Zealand and Australia) countries since 2020. Rohit, Virat and many other Indian players have been ahead in playing wrong shots, but Rahul’s nature has been amazing. When circumstances demanded runs both would fail under the immense pressure of moving the scoreboard up. Despite not getting support from the other end, Rahul took the responsibility of scoring runs and tiring the bowlers. He looked strong on the third day and could do nothing against the lethal Australian pace express.
When Rahul came out to bat on the fourth day, luck also favored him and he was caught by Steven Smith on the very first ball of captain Pat Cummins. The experienced batsman took full advantage of the situation and scored another half-century in red-ball cricket. As Rahul makes progress abroad, the figures are pointing towards his success. His average in SENA countries since 2020 has been better than Rohit, Virat and the dynamic Rishabh Pant.

Over 10 innings since 2020, Rahul has averaged 41.1 in SENA countries, which is higher than Pant’s 34.8, Rohit’s 33.2 and Virat’s 30.4.
