IPL 2020 has been serious competition for KL Rahul. While he has ruled the run diagrams, driving the Orange Cap race from the earliest starting point, his part as skipper of Kings XI Punjab has taken him through an exciting ride. With his group attached to the lower part of the focuses table at the midway stage, notwithstanding Rahul scoring a bagful of runs, question marks were being raised about his personality and the capacity of his group to complete close matches.
By then KXIP chose to get their secret weapon Chris Gayle and his appearance changed the group's equilibrium totally. Gayle's appearances did not simply help the group win matches, it likewise gave Rahul the opportunity to bat with certainty, and that gradually and bit by bit saturated his initiative also.

He was likewise named bad habit skipper for the ODI arrangement.
While this rise for Rahul is impermanent as India's assigned restricted overs chief Rohit Sharma is relied upon to get back from injury eventually, the progression, in any case, shows the confidence the group the board and BCCI has in his capacities.
“It is a very happy and proud moment. I wasn’t expecting it, but I’m very happy. I am ready for responsibility and challenge and I will try to do my best for my team as much as I can,” KL Rahul said in a video posted by his franchise KXIP.
Rahul however said that before the Australian test he is focused totally at work close by, which is to control KXIP to the end of the season games and afterward look forward from that point.
