KL Rahul had a difficult time in IPL 2023, continuing his poor form across all formats of the game. Despite his struggles, he was included in the squad for the World Test Championship final, even after being dropped from the Test side following a series of failures in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. The injuries to Shreyas Iyer and Rishabh Pant may have contributed to his retention in the squad.
Ishan Kishan has been named as the backup wicketkeeper for the Indian team in the upcoming World Test Championship final, following the injury of KL Rahul. Along with Kishan, the selectors have also included Ruturaj Gaikwad, Mukesh Kumar and Suryakumar Yadav as the reserve players for the marquee clash that is set to commence on June 7 in London.
