KL gives Delhi the perfect start
KL Rahul did not have the best of starts in IPL 2026, scoring 0 and 1 in the two games. With a huge score to chase, the onus was on Rahul to give his side the perfect start.
The veteran took his time to get off the blocks, building a partnership with Pathum Nissanka. The duo put on 63 in the powerplay. Rahul was batting on 33 off 25 when Nissanka departed, which unlocked another gear in his arsenal.
