KL Rahul Tweets Minutes After India's Fourth Test Defeat, Gets Trolled

KL Rahul looked in some kind of hurry to update his social media account minutes after India lost to England in the fourth Test on Sunday. Soon after England took an unassailable 3-1 lead in the ongoing five-match Test series, top-order batsman KL Rahul took to Twitter to wish Ishant Sharma on his 30th birthday. "To the most Genuine, Humble and a Lovely human being. The best kind of Senior you can get in a team, A Very Happy Birthday. Many more son.@ImIshant," KL Rahul tweeted. The tweet naturally did not go well with the fans, who criticised Rahul for his dismal performance.
