Ex-India cricketer Dilip Vengsarkar said India wicketkeeper-batter KL Rahul played a few important innings at number six in the Champions Trophy 2025, but he isn't convinced that all-rounder Axar Patel should bat ahead of him. "The left-hand right-hand combination could be the only reason," Vengsarkar added. Notably, Rahul scored 140 in the tournament, while Patel scored 109 runs.
