Indian opener KL Rahul once again failed to find his rhythm as he departed cheaply on the second day of the second Test match at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad.

The West Indies series was supposed to be a breather for out of form KL Rahul who everybody thought would get a chance to regain his confidence after his mixed show in England. The Windies tour was also supposed to be a trial for the upcoming Test series in Australia. But it seems KL Rahul has just blown away his chances with the scores of 0 (in the first Test against West Indies) and 4 (in the first innings of the second Test).

This is also noteworthy that in his last nine innings, KL Rahul was bowled out or got out for an LBW.

Here is how Twitter reacted after KL Rahul departed cheaply:

You Got To Appreciate KL Rahul. Not Easy For Batsmen To Maintain Their Indian And Overseas Performance Consistently. 👏😬🙏 #INDvWI #INDvsWI

You got to back a player like KL Rahul. Cannot judge his calibre based on few matches..

What is happening to KL Rahul? His rough patch in England was still acceptable but why is he failing in home conditions? Is it lack of technique or lack of temperament? It’s high time he performs else there are many others queued up.@BCCI @SGanguly99 @bhogleharsha @cricketaakash

Kl Rahul has some technical issues with incoming delivery which is exposed now..it’s hurting his confidence https://t.co/iqyUq8h3lf if he released from international duties thn he can work on his techniques in Ranji nd always come back..

Almost 30-40 minutes ago, the great Sunil Gavaskar mentioned the big flaw in KL Rahul batting technique – a huge gap between his bat and front foot while playing a shot. Have a look how he was dismissed just now #INDvWI #HyderabadTest #KLRahul #TestCricket

Thank You Jason Holder Thank you. Fuck off KL Rahul fan boys. Make way for Rohit Sharma.

Favouritism at its best… Virat this is not your personal team hope you remember this .
Better you could have played Partiv Patel in the place of KL Rahul if you don’t want to see Rohit in white jersey….

Meanwhile, young batsman Prithvi Shaw once again played a brilliant knock to register his maiden Test fifty.
