KL Rahul celebrates 20th Test 50 to seal 2-0 victory.

KL Rahul, the Indian opening batter, has continued to show his consistency in 2025 Tests, following his excellent away series against England at the United Kingdom with another superb home series of two red-ball encounters against the West Indies. He smashed a fine century during India’s long innings at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

Rahul missed out on the first innings for India of the second red-ball fixture at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi when he used his feet and missed the ball from Jomel Warrican which spun sharp to miss the outside edge of the batter as the wicket-keeper found the opening batter short of his crease.

The second innings of the game was another chance for Rahul to stamp his authority with the bat, especially during the low chase of 121 runs in the fourth innings. Rahul remained unbeaten on 58 runs and timed a boundary into the long-on region to complete India’s seven-wicket victory to seal the series by 2-0 margin.

Rahul was defensive at the start of the innings. He mostly looked to play the balls under his eyes with a steady head and never let the bowlers getting the better of him. In the morning session of the fifth and final day, Rahul, after a few defensive shots, showed his intent with the bat.

Rahul used his feet to tonk the left-arm spinner of the opposition, Jomel Warrican, for a boundary before repeating the same shot for an over boundary. With a sweep against the opposition captain, Roston Chase, the Karnataka-batter celebrated his 20th half-century and remained unbeaten on 58 runs to complete the victory and series by 2-0 margin.

The 33-year-old has now collected over 3900 runs in 113 innings of the red-ball format. His average is getting over 36 with a strike rate of more than 52, shouldering on 20 half-centuries and 11 centuries at the best score of 199. He will now shift his focus to the ODI series against Australia down under, starting on October 19.
