Player Story
A regular in the India top order for the best part of a decade, KL Rahul has made international centuries in all three formats.
Having made his Test debut during the 2014 Boxing Day Test, Rahul took a bit of time to find his feet at the top level. In 2016 he averaged 59.88 for the calendar year, which included his special 199 against England in Chennai.
Although an accomplished wicketkeeper, his opportunity to keep wickets for India have been rare given their strength in that field during his career.
Known for his elegant stroke play, Rahul has also proven himself to be a team man, moving up and down the batting order to accommodate his side’s needs.
He has been one of the most prolific run-scorer in the IPL. The tournament has also given him the chance to display his leadership skills, having led the Punjab Kings and the Lucknow Superchargers in the past. Rahul has also been part of the Indian leadership group and has led the team in all three formats.
