My Take
KL Rahul interests me as much for the weight he carries as for his talent. To captain India across all formats, and to remain the Test vice-captain, means shouldering the expectations of well over a billion people every time he walks to the crease. That pressure would crush most athletes. Representing Karnataka domestically and the Delhi Capitals in the IPL, he has had to reinvent his role more than once. I read him as a thoughtful, composed batsman who thrives precisely because he stays calm under scrutiny. Players who absorb that kind of national pressure and keep performing earn my deep respect.
