Lucknow Super Giants suffered their second defeat against Delhi Capitals in IPL 2025. KL Rahul scored a brilliant half-century for Delhi in the 40th match of IPL 2025 played in Lucknow.

KL Rahul's brilliant performance continues in IPL 2025. KL Rahul, who was a part of Lucknow Super Giants till last season, joined Delhi Capitals in the mega auction of IPL 2025 and is now doing wonders with the bat in the 18th season of IPL. KL joined the Delhi team one match late this season because he was about to become a father. Due to this, he could not play the first match of the season for Delhi against Lucknow Super Giants.
KL had to wait a long time to play the second match against Lucknow this season and then the day came on 22 April when the Delhi team came to play at Lucknow's home. In this match, all eyes were on KL Rahul, who was captaining Lucknow Super Giants till last season.

Not only this, when it was time to shake hands after the match, KL shook hands with Sanjeev Goenka very rudely. After this, when Sanjeev Goenka and his son asked him to stop, KL ignored both of them and moved ahead.
