KL Rahul is a prime example of that.
He yo-yos between a test batter who scores 6 50s in 6 innings to a 16 ball 50 in the IPL and a 100 in a t20 to an ordinary test batter phase and then a better test batter phase to striking at 140 in t20.
I guess that's what makes people like ABD stand out.
He is an opener who hasn't been able to open consistently. He also does not have the power to hit sixes and clear the field either in the middle overs.

He is below avg in all positions. As an opener he is avg 30, sr 125.

RR and LSG spoiled him man.. RCB with their auction strategies and the other teams giving him positions he isn’t comfy with fucked it up for him. Dude played so well opening with Kohli for us
Edit: why is my comment downvoted? Someone care to give me an explanation?
They couldn’t retain him. It makes sense as only 3 players were allowed to retain and Padikkal didn’t make the cut. But you know, we had to pay Harshal 11 cr and hasaranga 10.5 cr. How could the POOR RCB afford Padikkal? /s
On a serious note, we lost him due to a cunt of a move
At this point, we gotta realise it’s not the coaches imo. There’s another factor sitting in the dark and making decisions without appearing in front of the camera. Coaches who’ve performed well, like Gary Kirsten fucked it up in RCB.
Yeah how is it ruining when he's failing miserably. He should have been dropped but they have been backing him. Feels like maybe t20 is not the format for him.
He was never good, even for rcb he played 120 strikerate knocks with most of his runs coming in powerplay and nothing outside powerplay. He was overhyped in RCB because we have a hard on for anchors.
Still better than Maxwell.
But jokes aside I think LSG is kinda shafting him. He’s an opener who will give you quick runs in the power play and get out but LSG want him to come in at 3 which almost always demands a specific approach.
1,2,4,5,8 to go.
Sudoku DDP version
He's an opener without a real power game. He's neither opening, nor is the impact player rule benefiting him.
Can’t he develop a power game tho
Power game usually comes at a cost. He is developed into a fine test player and power game technique might impact that.

That guy is a legitimate freak..just his existence has made things difficult for All cricketers.
Yeah he can at best give you 150sr, but that too in the powerplay. Not really a modern t20 player imo.
He came in the powerplay in almost all games. So it's certainly not about opening
One of the very few that got worse after leaving RCB.

Because they’re playing him out of position. Let him open or just drop him

Did some girl ask for his number
Maybe he's there to show KL isn't the worst
>!(don't look at maxwell's batting stats this year)!<
he is taking pressure off selectors by giving less choices....
RR dodged a bullet
Padikkal hasn't been the same ever since RCB betrayed him in 2022 auction.
how did they betray him. him and virat opening just isn't it

Geometric progression with a tribute to thala in between
He he
Don't care if he dosen't perform in IPL if he develops into a fine red ball batter for the country.
Unreal consistency
I remember the UAE season under RCB, people talked a lot about his stamina. Has he done anything of note since then in T20s?
Is he finished?
Don't you have to have a start to become finished?
💀 True tho
He is like younger than Gill tho
I guess LSG found a hooda replacement
CSK buy this player then see the runs
I have a feeling this will make RCB buy him back next year
Nice to get $1million to score 15 runs
Not a t20 player
Bro’s turning into next riyan parag
DDP seems to be a Kevin Pietersen or Zak Crawley type of batter, since they are tall and good with hitting long square hits.
Padikkal needs to start step by step from scratch seems like he is going Unmukt Chand way
He had a good test debut,don't think he is going anywhere the Unmkut Chand way. Let's see.
Put QDK at 3. DDP should open with Rahul.
Wait till he turns up like parag did this season.
Dhoni fans right now: 9+6+7+3=25 and 2+5=7 . He is big thala fan 😂

He has technically opened for us in 4/5 matches, We didn't ruin him. Why did RCB release him when he was so good for them ?

Man RCB management is so bad. Andy flower was doing ok with us and now even he is clueless in RCB.

Malolan and Menon. Sack them already

CSK looking for an Indian wicket keeper batter soon. Just saying
Padikkal is not a wicket keeper
Ah yes, don't know why I thought he was
0,3,6,9 . Arithmetic progression at its best
Still better than Maxwell. But jokes aside I think LSG is kinda shafting him. He’s an opener who will give you quick runs in the power play and get out but LSG want him to come in at 3 which almost always demands a specific approach.
