KL Rahul (Pic Source-X) Indian team’s best player KL Rahul today i.e. on 27th November thanked his old IPL franchise Lucknow Super Giants and their fans in a special way. Let us tell you that recently the mega auction of Indian Premier League 2025 was organized. In this mega auction, KL Rahul was included in their team by Delhi Capitals for Rs 14 crore. Earlier, Rahul has been seen playing for Lucknow Super Giants and he has performed very well for this franchise. Under the captaincy of KL Rahul in the Indian Premier League, the performance of the Lucknow team was very poor and they could not make their place in the playoffs of this important tournament. After the match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, KL Rahul and Lucknow franchise owner Sanjiv Goenka were seen having a serious conversation about something. Sanjiv Goenka was not happy with the captaincy of KL Rahul and that is why he released the Indian player before the upcoming season. KL Rahul scored 520 runs in 14 matches for Lucknow Super Giants in the 2024 season at a strike rate above 136, while in the 2023 season, he scored 274 runs in 9 matches at an average of 34.25 for the same franchise. Rahul’s performance in IPL 2022 was tremendous for Lucknow and he scored 616 runs in 15 matches at an average of 51.33 and strike rate of 135.38. KL Rahul shared his picture on his official social media account and wrote on its caption, ‘I am thankful to the coach, teammates and fans who made this journey of Lucknow Super Giants memorable. Thanks everyone for the memories, trust and strength. For a new beginning. Here is KL Rahul’s tweet: Grateful to the coaches, teammates and the fans who made this journey with LSG unforgettable.

BGT 2024-25: Before BGT, photo of Mitchell Starc practicing with a special ball went viral.
Border-Gavaskar Trophy will start from 22nd November Mitchell Starc (Image Credit- Twitter X) Before the much-awaited Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test series between Australia and India (AUS vs IND), Australian team fast bowler Mitchell Starc has made headlines. It is noteworthy that the first match of this series will be played at Perth Stadium from 22nd November. So, before this match, in a practice session of the Australian team, Starc was seen practicing with a special kind of ball. The ball with which Starc is practicing is red on one side and white on the other. According to cricket experts, this type of ball helps the bowler a lot in maintaining hand-eye balance. By practicing with this type of ball, Starc can gain control over the late movement swing in the match. The pitch curator of Perth Stadium recently said that some grass is expected to be left on the pitch, due to which the fast bowlers can prove to be effective in the match. See this photo of Mitchell Starc viral on the internet Mitchell Starc was seen using a ball that was half red and half white to assist batters in practicing for lateral movement. 📷: Rev Sportz pic.twitter.com/JaKOsHrSMq — SportsTiger (@The_SportsTiger) November 18, 2024 On the other hand, if the latest media reports are to be believed, then Indian batsmen may face a lot of trouble due to late movement bowling at the end of the first Test match to be held in Perth. Perhaps this is the reason why Starc is practicing with a special type of ball before this match to take advantage of this weakness of India. However, this move by Australia could serve as a double-edged sword, as the current Indian team has a lot of bowlers who can work their magic in swing conditions. So if we tell you about Starc’s performance in Test cricket in the year 2024, he has bowled in 10 innings, in which he has taken a total of 27 wickets at an average of 32.25 and strike rate of 49.60. Apart from this, his average in Test cricket against the Indian team is 35.84. However, now it will be worth watching whether Starc is able to reduce his average against Team India in the upcoming series or not?
“He will have to talk to himself”- Ganguly gave special advice to Rahul before the start of BGT.
Lucknow Super Giants released their captain KL Rahul ahead of the IPL 2025 mega-auction. During the last edition of the tournament, the keeper-batsman had an intense conversation with owner Sanjiv Goenka after the match against Sunrisers Hyderabad and it is believed that the relationship between them soured after that. Rahul will now try his luck in the mega-auction and former captain Sourav Ganguly is hopeful that he will get a good team that will understand his importance. He said that after the controversy with Goenka, the pressure might have increased on Rahul and said that the player has to talk to himself and then leave everything behind. He also highlighted that every player goes through ups and downs in his career and something similar happened with the 32-year-old. Sourav Ganguly gave important advice to KL Rahul before BGT Ganguly said there is a lot of pressure on Rahul ever since Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) released him ahead of the 2025 mega auction of the cash-rich tournament. “He has to talk to himself,” he said as quoted by RevSportz. He has to talk to himself and say, just leave everything behind. Ups and downs are part of the game. Confidence keeps going up and down. You have to work hard in the nets and get your confidence back.” Ganguly further said, “I know he has gone through a lot. Lucknow Super Giants have released him. I don’t know if they will buy it back in the auction or not. I am sure he will get a good team and he will be able to recover his price in the IPL, but these things put pressure on players.” KL Rahul is currently on Australia tour and is part of the five-match Test series. It is considered certain that he will play in the Perth Test match, because Rohit Sharma is not available yet and Shubman Gill is also injured. In such a situation, he can play in the top order. Ganguly also said that if Rohit is not available then KL Rahul should open and Dhruv Jurel should play in the middle order.

AUS vs IND 2024-25: Umpire Simon Taufel made special comment on KL Rahul’s controversial DRS out in Perth Test
There is a special discussion in the cricket world regarding Rahul’s dismissal. Australia vs India, 1st Test (Image Credit- Twitter X) India is facing Australia in the first match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series from November 22 at the Optus Stadium in Perth. In the match, stand-in captain Jasprit Bumrah has won the toss and decided to bat first, which has not proved right for the team. However, there is a lot of discussion in the cricket world about the way experienced batsman KL Rahul was out in the match. After defending a lot of the ball, Rahul was slowly building his innings, but he was unfortunately given out in the 23rd over of the Indian innings. Mitchell Starc came to bowl this over of the Indian innings for Australia and in this over, he bowled the second ball of length to Rahul, which went very close to the bat. During this, other players including the bowler appealed, but the onfield umpire did not give the player out. But during this, captain Pat Cummins took DRS review and the third umpire gave Rahul out. But in UltraEdge it was clearly seen that the ball had hit the pad saved from the bat. On the other hand, now experienced umpire Simon Taufel has reacted to Rahul’s DRS out. Simon Taufel reacts to Rahul’s DRS out Let us tell you that Simon Taufel, while discussing with 7 Cricket about Rahul’s dismissal in the Perth Test, said – We saw in that side on shot that there was a spike on the RTS and the bat was away from the pad, in other words the bat. The lower part did not reach the pad. So rotating it in its natural course, you would have seen the second spike (on the sneako, to indicate the bat hitting the pad) come in more than if it had been rotated all the way. So former cricketer Matthew Hayden, who was commenting during this time, said – We are assuming that (Snikko) could be the outer edge of the bat, but it cannot be so. Well, the umpire’s decision is the final decision, and the player cannot protest against it. Due to this decision of the umpire, Rahul had to return to the pavilion after being out on the score of 26 runs in 74 balls.
