In his first appearance at Ekana Cricket Stadium since an unceremonious exit from Lucknow Super Giants , KL Rahul left as a jubilant man. He scored an unbeaten fifty for new franchise Delhi Capitals as they posted a commanding 8-wicket win on Tuesday evening.
As KL Rahul looked to walk off the field, LSG owner Sanjiv Goenka look to congratulate the DC batter but the 32-year-old walked away in a hurry.

KL Rahul was publicly rebuked by Goenka after a loss in IPL 2024 which created quite the controversy. The batter was then released by the franchise ahead of the mega auction last year.
On his comeback night, his first appearance vs LSG since leaving, KL Rahul hit an unbeaten 57 to steer Delhi Capitals to an emphatic eight-wicket win.
Chasing a modest 160 for victory, Delhi rode on Rahul's 42-ball knock and a second-wicket partnership with Abishek Porel, who hit 51, to achieve their target with 13 balls.
Delhi, with six wins in eight matches, bounced back from their previous defeat to table-toppers Gujarat Titans and are second in the 10-team table.
DC seamer Mukesh Kumar set up the victory with his four wickets as he helped pull Lucknow back from 87-0 to 110-4 and then a below-par total of 159/6.
