Dubai, Feb 28: Wicketkeeper-batter KL Rahul is not sure if India would tinker with the winning combination in a big tournament like Champions Trophy despite sealing a semifinal spot, but is certain that the team has learnt to do better in the ICC tournaments, of late.
With big wins against Bangladesh and Pakistan, Rohit Sharma’s side has already secured a spot in the knock-out stage with a game to go against New Zealand on Sunday.The current scenario is completely different to their T20 World Cup campaign in 2021 in Dubai when they suffered a heavy 10-wicket defeat against Pakistan, then lost to New Zealand and eventually missed out on qualifying for the semifinals.Asked if the team was in a happy place, considering the comfortable position they were in, Rahul said he had not thought on those lines.“Those are things that did affect us back then. And it wasn’t a pleasant time for us players to not be in the semifinals (in 2021) or do well in the competitions,” Rahul said during a media interaction. (PTI)
