Rahul showed signs of acceleration but was slowed down again before he teed off against Shoriful Islam in the ninth over.From 23 off 22, he raced along to his half-century off just 31 deliveries before a top-edge was induced off his pull to short fine leg. Suryakumar Yadav played a brisk innings of 30 before Virat Kohli, after a brief slowdown, racked up a half-century - his third of the T20 World Cup 2022.India managed 184/6 in their 20 overs, with Kohli finishing on 64* and Ashwin on 13*.Will this knock charge KL Rahul along as the T20 World Cup progresses?
