Indian Premier League 2022: Ravi Shastri selected two of the season’s best batsmen to win the Orange Cap.
IPL 2022 has seen great performances from Jos Buttler and KL Rahul. When Lucknow Super Giants defeated Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday, Rahul hit his second century of the season, adding to Buttler’s three previously. For the second time this season, LSG defeated MI thanks to Rahul Chahar’s undefeated 103, which included 12 boundaries and four sixes. In the season’s run charts, he’s presently just one run behind Buttler, with 368.
It was also against the Mumbai Indians at the Brabourne Stadium that he scored his first century.
Ravi Shastri, the former head coach of the Indian cricket team, predicted that one of the two opening batsmen would win the Orange Cap this season.
“He’s got a strong all-around game, good technique, all the shots, a great disposition, and a calm demeanor. He’s a great prospect. Leading a new club requires the best of him, and that’s exactly what he’s getting now “Prior to LSG’s match against Mumbai Indians, Shastri had stated on Cricket Live on Star Sports.
“When you asked me, Orange Cap, whom I’d pick as the best opener, I responded KL Rahul. So, he and (Jos) Buttler would go head-to-head “Shastri continued by saying:
“Opening batsmen are the ones who make or break a team in the TATA IPL, therefore if you have one who is on fire, your team will do well. If you receive a good opener, you’ve just done half the work “The reason he made these choices was explained to him.
