KL Rahul has been signed by the Delhi Capitals (DC) for ₹14 crore at the IPL 2025 mega auction held in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The experienced Indian batter became one of the most sought-after players in the auction, with teams like Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) putting up a tough fight before DC successfully secured his services.

A Proven Performer in IPL

KL Rahul, 32, has been a consistent performer in the IPL, scoring 4,683 runs across 132 matches with a remarkable average. Known for his ability to anchor innings and accelerate when needed, the right-handed batter has been a key player for multiple teams. Before this auction, he was released by Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) after captaining the team for three seasons since 2022.

Rahul began his IPL journey with Royal Challengers Bangalore, later moving to Sunrisers Hyderabad and then Punjab Kings, where he became one of the league’s standout batters. His leadership and batting skills have made him a valuable asset for any team.

Delhi Capitals’ Strategy

Delhi Capitals, who also signed Australian pacer Mitchell Starc earlier in the auction, seem to be strengthening their core with experienced players. Rahul’s ability to stabilize the top order and guide innings will add depth to DC’s batting lineup.
