The senior-most Indian batter, KL Rahul, was the third-highest run-getter in the five-Test series against England. He was tasked with the responsibility to guide the young Indian batters, as Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were not present on this tour after their retirements. Rahul played his role to a tee as the opener of the team.

Rahul hammered two centuries in the series for the first time in his Test career, and also hit two fifties. He made 532 runs in 10 innings at an average of 53.20 with the highest score of 137. One of his centuries came at the Lord’s Cricket Ground, which was his second Test ton at the venue, making him the first Indian and first Asian opener to score multiple centuries at Lord’s.

2. Joe Root—537runs
