KL Rahul has created history by continuing his brilliant batting on England tour. After scoring a century in the first match of the Test series, Rahul has now scored a century in Lord’s. On the third day of Lord’s Test, the opener of Team India completed his 9th Test century. With this, Rahul showed that, which happened only once in the history of Indian cricket. Rahul became the second batsman of India to score more than one Test century in this historic ground.
During the first innings of Team India on Saturday, July 12, the third day of the third match of the Test series at Lord’s, Rahul achieved this amazing feat. On the second day, Rahul, who returned unbeaten on 53 on the second day, showed some aggressive style on the second day and paid attention to collecting the boundary. During this time, in one over of Bridan Cars, Rahul also hit 3 fours in a row. During this, Rahul along with Pant also brought Team India beyond 250 runs.
However, as soon as Rahul reached 98 runs, in the last over before lunch, suddenly there was a misunderstanding between him and Rishabh Pant about the run and Pant was run out. In such a situation, the Indian batsman had to wait for the next session for his century. Then when the second session started, Rahul completed the 9th century of his Test career with a run. With this, Rahul also completed his second consecutive century. Rahul also scored a century on this ground on the last tour in 2021. He was Rahul’s first century here and now he has crossed the 100 mark on this historic venue for the second time.
