KL Rahul, the star batter for Delhi Capitals, recently joined the squad after missing the opening match due to personal reasons. He and his wife Athiya Shetty welcomed their baby girl, which was celebrated by the team with a heartwarming cradle celebration in the dressing room. During a team dinner, Rahul entertained his teammates by impersonating the team’s mentor, Kevin Pietersen, mimicking his batting stance and voice to perfection.
Rahul previously played for Lucknow Super Giants before being picked up by Delhi Capitals for INR 14 crore in the mega auction. Despite speculations about him potentially being named captain, Rahul reportedly declined the role, with Axar Patel taking over from the outgoing Rishabh Pant.
With Rahul’s debut for Delhi Capitals expected in their upcoming match against Sunrisers Hyderabad on March 30, fans are eager to see how he will contribute to the team’s success. His arrival adds depth to the batting lineup and brings valuable experience to the squad, making him a key player to watch in the upcoming matches.
