KL Rahul walked into the second ODI with a point to prove. The opener has been heavily criticised for his inconsistent performances with the bat.

The KXIP star put all the critics to bed and scored an excellent 102, laced with 8 boundaries and three hits over it. KL Rahul had his say, celebrating in some style, holding his ears after reaching the landmark.
