This year IPL (IPL 2022) is going to start from 26 March. This year’s IPL is going to be special in many ways. This year sports lovers will be seen playing two new teams (IPL News Teams). The name of these two new teams is one Gujarat Titans and the other team Lucknow Supergiants. The captain of Gujarat is Hardik Pandya and the captain of Lucknow is KL Rahul. Last year, Rahul also batted brilliantly, but he could not succeed as the captain of Punjab Kings (PBKS). In such a situation, under the captaincy of Lucknow, he will definitely try to do something special.
At the same time, former India cricketer and opener Aakash Chopra has rated KL Rahul. He says that this task will not be easy for wicket-keeper batsman Rahul. Actually, Akash feels that Rahul’s batting was relatively slow during the captaincy of Punjab Kings. Akash said, “Rahul needs a lot to get over it while playing for his new franchise.

Talking on his official YouTube channel, Akash said, Rahul has a clean slate like Hardik Pandya. However, it would be a big challenge for him given that he was playing slow for Punjab Kings as the team was like that. Akash further said, after asking you, the team would have been selected, tell me what a good captain you are, because now you have no excuse, and no story.
Akash further said, so now Rahul play freely, it is now or never, do or die, that is what matters. There will be Gautam Gambhir and Andy Flower two good minded people, also you are a good captain and you are also a great player, so try to get your best.
Now if we talk about the records of KL Rahul, then he has played 94 IPL matches so far. In which 3273 runs have been scored, during which he has also scored 2 centuries.
