When will KL Rahul be seen next on the field playing for India?

After missing out on the T20 squad that scripted history in the USA and West Indies by winning the T20 World Cup, KL Rahul returned to the Indian side during the recently culminated tour against Sri Lanka. Rahul was a part of the ODI squad. Considering he was out of the squad for months, a stunning comeback was expected. However, the stylish batter failed to showcase his mettle against Sri Lanka. He played only two ODIs, and registered scores of 31, and 0. He was replaced by Rishabh Pant in the 3rd ODI of the series, which India eventually lost 0-2.  India's next assignment is against Bangladesh. KL Rahul could feature in the Test series and could get a chance in the T20Is also.
