Karthik pointed out that despite playing more than 40 Tests, Rahul only averaged in the mid-30s. This is the lowest in Indian Test cricket. Karthik said this figure is not acceptable for an opener. The wicket-keeper batter also stated that this is the lowest average among Indian players who have played at least 35 Test matches.

India’s next Test matches are the home series once morest Australia from February 3. Karthik feels that Rahul will not be able to score centuries in this series. Moreover, it is predicted that young player Shubman Gill may make way for India XI regularly. To secure his place in the Test team, he needs to score two centuries once morest Australia. Otherwise, you can definitely see a change in the team. Karthik added that Shubman Gill is performing well.

India managed to end the year 2022 successfully. After defeating Bangladesh by 3 wickets in the Mirpur Test, they won the series 2-0. However, captain Rahul’s performance is questionable. The average in four Test innings is 14.25. Rahul’s score is 22, 23, 10 and 2. Rahul’s average in Test cricket has now dropped to 34.26.

Team India will host Australia in the four-match Border Gavaskar Trophy series starting in February. This will be a crucial series for Rahul. With the series win once morest Bangladesh, India secured the second spot in the ICC World Test Championship. India is now behind Australia. If they win two or three Tests and draw the two matches once morest Australia, India can reach the final for the second time in a row.
