Chennai Super Kings' Lungi Ngidi rattles up KL Rahul during the IPL match against Kings XI Punjab in Pune on Sunday.
Watching K.L. Rahul in full flow, his body and mind in harmony as he picks the length early, out-thinks the bowler and slices open the field, has thrilled the senses in IPL-11.
While he can essay the classical shots — still head, high left elbow, decisive feet movement — Rahul also innovates.
His touch is deft, timing exquisite and impact devastating. Stylish even when he plays those shots not quite in the book, the opener has an astonishing 652 runs at 59.27 with a strike-rate of 160.98.
