Brian Lara heaps praise on Indian batsman 

Legendary West Indies batsman Brian Lara has praised KL Rahul for the way he has batted in the ongoing Indian Premier League and across formats in international cricket. The skipper of Kings XI Punjab, who couldn`t score much in the last night game against Delhi Capitals, is still the leading run-scorer in the 13th edition of the tournament. Apart from a couple of centuries, he has also hit a well-compiled hundred against Royal Challengers Bangalore. “He’s my test batsman, he’s my 50-over batsman and he’s my T20 batsman,” Lara said on Star Sports after KXIP beat Mumbai Indians. “As a captain he has done very well. I love the way he bats, love the way he puts them together. Yes he struggled to finish off matches towards the beginning but now he’s looking to improve that too,” Lara said. This is not the first time Lara has lauded KL Rahul. He had earlier hailed his batting technique.
