While talking about KL Rahul, Dilip said that the wicketkeeping often gets ignored and then added that the 31-year-old was fantastic on Saturday.
"One skill generally which really gets ignored. I think that is wicketkeeping, we expect to do the job, but some of the things we spoke about coming to the wicket and coming to the stumps to collect that throws. Doing the leg side stump and catches. I think overall KL Rahul was fantastic," he added.
In the end, Dilip heaped praise on Shreyas Iyer for his top-class effort in the most anticipated match of the tournament. (Happy Birthday Babar Azam: Match Winning 68 Vs India To 158 Vs England; Top Knocks Of Pakistan Captain - In Pics)
