On the other hand, after buying KL Rahul in the mega auction of IPL 2025, Delhi Capitals co-owner Parth Jindal spoke to him. Parth Jindal told ESPN Cricinfo that apart from 14 crores, KL Rahul has also asked for respect. He told that Rahul has said that he just wants to play cricket. He just wants love and support from the franchise. He said that he wants respect and hopes that he will get that from Delhi. Rahul is also desperate to play IPL for Delhi and make it win.

KL Rahul is currently with Team India in Australia and runs are being seen coming from his bat there. Meaning his bat has started speaking, which he has promised to Sunil Shetty.
