RCB team has been playing in IPL since 2008. There are many great players and captains in the team. Still the RCB team has not been able to win the title. RCB made it to the final thrice and lost each time. Ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction, RCB has retained only three players and they include Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar and Yash Dayal. Superstar batsman and captain Faf du Plessis has been released. Now the mega auction of IPL 2025 is scheduled to be held on November 24 and 25. RCB does not have a captain. In such a situation, he wants to target a player who can captain with great batting and for this KL Rahul can be a suitable option.
Lucknow Super Giants did not retain Rahul
KL Rahul has not been retained by the Lucknow Super Giants team. Rahul has captaincy experience and under his captaincy Lucknow made it to the IPL playoffs twice. He has previously played for RCB (2013-16) and Bengaluru’s M Chinnaswamy is his home ground. The most special thing about Rahul is that he can perform the responsibility of wicketkeeper and can also open. He can be a great option for any team. In such a situation RCB team can spend crores of rupees to buy him.
KL Rahul has captained in 64 matches
KL Rahul has captained 64 IPL matches so far, out of which he has won 38 and lost 29. Apart from this two matches are tied. Rahul’s strike rate has always been discussed for some time now. But he is a batsman who plays big innings once he gets to the crease.
