KL Rahul was bagged by the Kings XI Punjab for INR 11,00,00,000, making it difficult for RCB to play the RTM.

The 25-year-old is expected to fulfil the roles of a wicket-keeper and a potential captain for the KXIP, thereby justifying his price-tag.

Starting his international career as a test specialist, the Karnataka cricketer refined his skills and went on to score centuries in all formats for India, the feat that only a handful of batsman has achieved.
