KL Rahul reveals his love for football

India’s star batsman KL Rahul has revealed his love for the game of football and has called himself and his skipper as footballers for life. Indian team is always found to be dribbling with the ball. More often than not they warm up with their favourite sport ahead of any game. Virat Kohli had even expressed once that if not a cricketer, he would have tried and become a footballer. The team is enjoying a happy space right now as they have won the series against Australia with two matches to go.

Men in Blue will face the wounded Kangaroos in the fourth One-Day International in Bengaluru on Thursday. It is expected that Aussies might come hard at the hosts in order to salvage some pride from the series and win the last couple of games. They are also scheduled to play 3 T20 Internationals post the conclusion of ODI series.
KL Rahul, who is warming the bench after his poor run in Sri Lanka, posted a picture of him playing football with Virat Kohli on social media and posted a message for his followers.

His message read, “Ballers For Life @virat.kohli  #FootyBusiness #WarmUp #Training #CelebrityClasico #AllHeartFC.” However, the players need to take care of themselves while playing and not injured. There have been a lot of instances of them getting injured while playing football ahead of the game and getting ruled out of an important series.
