Actor Suniel Shetty has reacted to rumours that his daughter, actress Athiya Shetty, is dating cricketer KL Rahul. 

KL Rahul has been in scintilating form for India lately and has established himself as the primary wicketkeeper-batsman for India in limited-overs cricket.

Referring to the versatility Rahul has shown, former India cricketer Mohammed Kaif said on Twitter: "KL Rahul is Team India's very own Swiss knife".

Indian skipper Virat Kohli revealed the batting position of KL Rahul in the ODI series against New Zealand.

Rohit retired hurt after scoring 60 off 41 balls after he pulled his calf muscle while going for a quick single during the match that India won on Sunday.

Rahul achieved the second spot on the rankings with 823 points. Top on the charts is still Pakistan skipper Babar Azam with 879 points.

Day after the historic-series win over New Zealand, KL Rahul shared a photo on his Instagram account with skipper Virat Kohli. Meanwhile, Kohli also reposted the same photo a few minutes later.

Following India's record-achieving 5-0 series win in New Zealand, we take a look at the six key takeaways for the Men in Blue.

Prior to the start of the tour, Kohli said cricketers are "getting closer and closer to landing at the stadium and playing straight."

Rahul, who led the side in the fifth T20, said he didn't have to do much despite missing senior figures.

KL Rahul had a great series against New Zealand and he became the highest Indian run-getter in a T20I bilateral series.

Rahul on Sunday scored 45 off 33, laced with four boundaries and two sixes to give India promising start against the Black Caps after the early dismissal of Sanju Samson.

Rohit Sharma was retired hurt after injuring his left calf whilst hitting a six and walked off the field in discomfort.

Kohli revealed that India wanted to go with Sanju Samson and KL Rahul for the Super Over, but the latter convinced the skipper himself to appear given his experience. The pair chased down the required 14 with a ball to spare. 

India's domination against New Zealand on their own backyard can't be called lucky or very surprising but it's a result that was unforeseen.

Chahal, Rahul and Kohli are currently in New Zealand gearing up for the third T20I against the Blackcaps to be played on Wednesday. 

For the second time in three days, Indian cricket witnessed a scene they longed for, one that troubled them the most in their build-up to World Cup 2019. 

Rahul was unbeaten on 57 off 50 balls and his 86-run stand with Shreyas Iyer after the early dismissals of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma took the match away from New Zealand 

Rahul, who had earlier scored 56 in the first T20I at the same venue, has also been doing good work behind the stumps.

Rahul scored a 50-ball 57* against the Black Caps on Sunday, laced with three boundaries and two sixes, to guide India to a seven-wicket win in the second T20I.
