KL Rahul: KL Rahul (KL Rahul) is about to break ties with Delhi Capitals before IPL 2026, which has created a stir in the cricket world. According to reports, he will be given the captaincy of a new franchise in the upcoming season. Rahul’s leadership ability and constant good batting make him a strong contender for this post. Fans are eagerly waiting for Rahul to see Rahul in their new color and as captain.

According to reports, KL Rahul (KL Rahul) can leave Delhi Capitals before IPL 2026. According to reports, Rahul can now turn to another franchise and if this happens, Rahul can be seen captaining the new team in the coming season.

According to recent media reports, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) is showing a keen interest in signing KL Rahul. Not only this, if the deal is done, the franchise is allegedly considering to hand over the captaincy to them.

Why does KKR want KL Rahul?

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) had to struggle a lot about their wicketkeeping options in the 2025 season. Quinton de Kock was able to score only 152 runs in eight matches, while Rahmanullah Gurbaz played only five matches and scored only 74 runs.

In such a situation, KL Rahul’s involvement can solve two major problems of the franchise – a reliable wicketkeeping option and an experienced captain. In the last season, there was a lack of continuity in the top order of KKR under the captaincy of Ajinkya Rahane.

Rahul, who scored 539 runs in 13 matches for Delhi Capitals last season, was his highest run -scorer, which proved to be his form and utility as a top -order batsman. Their presence will strengthen KKR.

How can Rahul connect with you Kkr?

According to reports, KL Rahul’s potential trade may be either a multi-player deal or with heavy transfer fees. The multi-player deal will mean that Delhi Capitals may get more than one player instead of releasing Rahul.

However, it remains to be seen whether Delhi will agree to release its top scorer from 2025 season. Interestingly, CSK’s name has also been associated with Rahul, before that the same thing happened to Sanju Samson.

If the CSK is involved in this race, KL Rahul may be raising the race to sign. One thing is certain, if Rahul joins KKR, then the problem of franchise’s leadership and wicketkeeping will also be solved.
