“See,
it
is
a

blow.
KL
Rahul
is
not
available
for
these
two
Test
matches,
he
did
really
well
in
England.
He
was
in
good
form
and
played
really
well.
“Obviously,
we
will
miss
him
but
we
have
guys
who
can
fill
that
slot,
guys
who
did
well
for
us
in
the
past.
Not
too
worried
about
the
opening
slot,”
said
Rahane
during
a
virtual
press
conference.
“First
of
all,
we
will
miss
these
three
guys
(Virat
Kohli,
Rishabh
Pant
and
Rohit
Sharma).
But
it
is
a
good
opportunity
for
all
the
youngsters
to
play,
whoever
gets
an
opportunity,
they
will
look
to
play
with
freedom.
“This
team
is
all
about
backing
one
another.
Conditions
here
and
conditions
in
South
Africa
will
be
different,
first,
we
are
thinking
about
this
series,”
he
added.
