“A connection I can’t explain” – When Suniel Shetty wished KL Rahul on his 32nd birthday

Suniel Shetty wished KL Rahul on his 32nd birthday on April 18. He had penned down a heartwarming message for the wicketkeeper-batter on Instagram, writing:

“They say it’s not what we have in life, but who we have in our life that matters …feeling blessed to have you in ours for it’s a connection I can’t explain …happy birthday Rahul … love you son.”

On the professional front, Rahul played the first two ODIs in the recently concluded three-match series in Sri Lanka. The right-handed batter returned with scores of 31 and 0 before being dropped for the third ODI. Team India lost the second match by 32 runs and the third match by 110 runs after the opener ended in a tie. The hosts won the series 2-0.

Former India player Dodda Ganesh, who hails from Karnataka, slammed the move as Rahul was left out of the playing XI for the third game. The 51-year-old wrote on X:

​

“Only in a crazy universe will u have Dube and Riyan Parag playing ahead of KL Rahul, in a decider ODI. Don’t understand what’s happening. He was leading India just 3 ODIs ago and all of a sudden, one failure & he is out of the playing XI. Ridiculous is an understatement.”

Rahul is likely to be picked in India's squad for the two-match Test series in Bangladesh in September.
