But he accidentally put Rahul instead of Rohan. But by the time he realized his mistake, Rahul's birth certificate had been made.

His father's obsession with cricket had the effect that Rahul was a cricket enthusiast since childhood.

His father, Dr. Lokesh, says about this,

   " Rahul started playing cricket at a young age. But I saw that he started taking an interest in cricket too much. Then I told him, Rahul, if you pay attention to your studies along with cricket, only then you can carry your cricket on."

Rahul obeyed his father and started paying equal attention to both his initial interests.

    "Rahul was the youngest of almost all the children. So we used to ask him to keep wickets with us. Due to this, he wished to keep wicket, which was a profitable deal for him.

Soon Rahul started attacking his Mangalore team with his excellent batting performance. Confirming this, coach Jayaraj says,

   " When Rahul was out early, the entire Mangalore team was all out within 100 runs. But when he used to play a good tip, Mangalore easily defeated big teams like Bangalore.
