The thrill of IPL 2026 is already increasing, as it is reported that KL Rahul may leave Delhi Capitals before the next season. Both Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders are showing interest in trading KL Rahul. Both Chennai and Kolkata are ready to offer captaincy to team Rahul. However, the final decision on this will not be Rahul but Delhi Capitals will have to take it. Rahul is currently in great form and has scored more than 500 runs in the Test series against England.
It will be worth noting that it will only be a cash deal, or Delhi Capitals can trade a senior player with CSK or KKR. Chennai Super Kings can also replace KL Rahul with MS Dhoni, who can also handle the weight of wicketkeeping. After the conclusion of IPL 2025, there was speculation about Sanju Samson going to Chennai team, but according to the new update, CSK is seeing Rahul as a replacement of Dhoni.
Dhoni’s perfect replacement!
If Chennai Super Kings can make KL Rahul’s trade successful, then he can prove to be the perfect replacement of MS Dhoni. Rahul works with patience, can captain, can take the weight of wicketkeeping on his shoulders.
On the other hand, foreign wicketkeeper batsmen in the KKR team have failed to do good. The performance of Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Quinton Decock was felt lacking. In such a situation, with the arrival of KL Rahul, the Kolkata team will not only get a senior wicketkeeper batsman, but he can also remove the Blam of KKR’s captaincy.
KL Rahul was added to Delhi Capitals for Rs 14 crore in IPL 2025 mega auction. He was the highest run -scorer for Delhi Capitals last season. He scored 539 runs in 13 matches.
