His ongoing struggles have become a worrying pattern, leaving questions about his future in the side.
To make matters worse for the 32-year-old, his dismissal in the second innings was an embarrassing moment. Bowled out by spinner Corey Rocchiccioli, Rahul shook his head in disbelief as he made his way back to the pavilion.
A tossed-up delivery from Rocchiccioli, turning in towards middle stump, caught Rahul off guard. He misjudged it, offering no shot, and simply padded up to the ball, deflecting it onto his own stumps.
Scott Boland dismissed Rahul for just four runs in the first innings. In the second innings, Rahul spent more time at the crease, facing 44 balls for 10 runs.
For Rahul, this match was essential to solidify his place in India’s Test squad ahead of the fast-approaching Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
India A are leading by 11 runs on Day 2, standing at 161 & 73/5 (31).
