Lokesh Rahul, the 21-year-old wicketkeeper batsman, now part of the India Under-23 squad, cracked a fluid unbeaten 93 as his side defeated Pakistan Under-23 to win the inaugural edition of the Asian Cricket Council’s Emerging Teams Cup Tournament. He is catching the eye of his namesake Rahul Dravid.
At an ESPNcricinfo For Cricket 20-year anniversary event held at the Oval ahead of the Fifth Ashes Test, Rahul Dravid delivered a speech entitled ‘Why T20 needs Test cricket’. He made a stout defence of Test cricket and the domestic game around the world.
Rahul Dravid and two other Indian players have been made witnesses on a Delhi police charge sheet against spot-fixers in Indian Premier League (IPL) matches, according to Kailash Bisht, the Investigation Officer in Delhi police Special Cell.
