Only two Test hundreds at home in a career spanning over a decade may not sit well with many. But elegant India batter KL Rahul on Friday said he has been working hard to correct that anomaly.
Rahul, who has had an excellent tour of England this summer, struck his llth century on the second day of the opening Test against the West Indies here -- his first at home since the ton against the same team in Chennai way back in 2016.
“Not sure really,’ Rahul said at the end of day's play when asked why a batter of his calibre has got just two hundreds at home.
“But yeah, somehow I think the only thing that I’ve worked on in the last year or so has been maintaining my batting tempo. Just enjoying the phases that are not as exciting for me in my own head,” he added.
