Lucknow Super Giants fielding coach Jonty Rhodes is of the opinion that skipper KL Rahul has never been 'plagued' by captaincy after the opener struck his first fifty of the ongoing IPL season. A prolific run-getter in the IPL, Rahul smashed 74 off 56 balls albeit in a two-wicket loss. He had also captained the Punjab Kings and Rhodes was part of that support staff.

"The captain is someone who likes to lead from the front. He has always been a successful, dominating batter in all the IPLs. Captaincy isn't something that's ever plagued him. Many great batters when given captaincy don't quite handle it. He's led from the front and I think it's great to see that," Rhodes said at the post-match conference," said Rhodes.
