Punjab Kings wanted to retain KL Rahul as the captain for next year as well, however, the Indian opener wasn’t interested to continue playing for the franchise. As a result, Punjab Kings had to release him and thus they will be playing with a new captain next year. There are talks that KL Rahul might lead the Lucknow franchise in IPL 2022.

Perhaps, all the franchises will be having an eye on him and would be desperate to buy his services. Given the kind of form he is right now coupled with his leadership skills, he could become the most expensive player in IPL history.
