The buzz around KL Rahul has gripped literally everyone in the cricketing spectrums. From fans and former cricketers to current stars, discussions over the opening batter's place in the Indian team are intensifying. Former India cricketers Venkatesh Prasad and Aakash Chopra have also been involved in a bitter social media feud on the situation while captain Rohit Sharma and head coach Rahul Dravid have their own perspectives on the situation. As people differ in their opinions, we thought of seeking the help of ChatGPT -- the viral Artificial Intelligence-based platform -- to better understand the KL Rahul situation.

On being asked the question, ChatGPT didn't really suggest if the batter should be dropped or retained in the team but called for the decision to be taken on certain factors.

Question: "Should KL Rahul be dropped from the Indian Test Team?"

Answer: "As an AI language model, I do not have personal opinions or biases about specific individuals or teams. However, as a general rule, the decision to drop a player from a team should be based on their recent performance and fitness, and whether their skills and abilities are in line with the team's requirements.

If KL Rahul's recent performances in Test matches have been consistently below par, and there are other players in the squad who can potentially perform better in his position, then the team management may consider dropping him from the team. However, if he has been performing well and his skills are deemed to be important for the team's strategy, then he may be retained in the squad.

Ultimately, team selection decisions are made by the team management based on a variety of factors, including player form, fitness, and tactical considerations, and are subject to change based on evolving circumstances."

As the situation stands, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) decided not to drop KL Rahul from the Indian Test squad for the 3rd and 4th matches of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. But, the board did remove him as the designated vice-captain of the team.

Though the change isn't a guarantee, it could lead to Shubman Gill replacing Rahul in the playing XI for the third Test against Australia in Indore.
