KL Rahul likely to be Dropped:
Word is spread that Indian vice-captain KL Rahul is going to be dropped from the T20I squad for poor performance on multiple occasions. The reason for this is the failure of Rahul to perform on the multiple opportunities given to him. Players like Ishan Kishan and Sanju Samson are waiting for their chances, which makes his case weaker. Hardik Pandya is likely to get the vice-captain’s role.
