Watch: KL Rahul tests illegal bats with Kevin Pietersen in epic challenge as video goes viral
The right-handed opening batter of the Indian cricket team, KL Rahul, and the former England batter, Kevin Pietersen, test the illegal bats in an epice challenge as the video goes viral around social media.
In the latest video of Kevin Pietersen, India’s opening batter, KL Rahul, turned up to test the illegal bats in a ground, as the video has gone viral. Pietersen showed a bat at the start of the video, which he called illegal, designed to smash the ball harder, further, and, as some say, unfairly around the park. He reckoned that using it was cheating.
Rahul used the bat and nailed a few massive sixes around the ground before the England batter himself took the charge to nail it out of the ground. Rahul and Pietersen love nailing the sixes as they use those illegal bats. It was one of the three batters, which were either wide, or tall, or had a higher spec than normal.

“Our only goal is to find out whether these bats are legal or not.” Said Rahul, who cracked a massive six straight down the ground and claimed, “Never hit a ball that far.’
