KL Rahul’s century on Day 3 of the Lord’s Test against England reaffirmed his role as India’s dependable opener. Once a utility player shuffled across roles, Rahul now thrives at the top, scoring his second century at Lord’s and tenth overall. His transformation stems from mental training inspired by Formula One, improving reaction time and focus. Sunil Gavaskar hailed him as the “glue” of the team, praising his understated leadership and mentorship. Rahul’s calm presence and consistency have anchored India’s innings and morale. With 3,139 runs as an opener, he’s become a quiet force trusted, resilient, and vital to India’s Test ambitions. (PC: RBC)
