Team India batter KL Rahul has tested positive for COVID-19 a couple of days back. Rahul’s girlfriend and celebrated Bollywood actress Athiya Shetty has shared a special message for the India vice-captain.
In the photo, Athiya wore a green shirt while Rahul wore a white T-shirt. Both seemed to be sitting on a couch with their heads bumping into each others. Sharing the photo, she wrote, “Favourite one.” She also added a monkey emoji to her post.
Rahul and Athiya Shetty made their relationship official last year as the Indian cricketer wished her on her birthday with a social media post featuring Athiya and himself. Rahul even attended the premiere of Athiya’s brother, Ahan Shetty’s debut movie Tadap. The couple recently travelled to Munich, Germany together where Rahul underwent a surgery.
KL Rahul Likely To Miss T20I Series Against West Indies
Indian cricketer KL Rahul is likely to miss the five-match T20I series against West Indies. The series starts on Friday, July 29 at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad. KL Rahul tested positive for the covid-19 virus last week.
He missed the ODI series against West Indies. As per a report by Espncricinfo, the right-handed batter will also miss the T20I series. It’s been a tough few weeks for KL Rahul, as he underwent sports hernia surgery last month. He had to miss India’s tour of England, where the visitors played a Test, three ODIs, and as many T20 internationals.
Following his surgery, he was in Bengaluru, before testing positive for the covid-19 virus. The opener has tested negative twice, as per the rule, but still has been advised to rest by the doctors.
