The as claimed by reports never looked to return with the former skipper KL Rahul, however, they supported today as they looked forward to making KL Rahul one of their top-priority retentions.

KL Rahul after leaving out LSG is a seeming target for these 4 franchises

The Gujarat Titans are looking forward to rebuilding a team to level up with the other franchises, as they lack in the batting department. With a wicket-keeper who can open the innings for the Titans, everything might be sorted.

KL Rahul might be looking to fancy his chances into such a team, as Rahul might also be a valuable asset to the side owing to his brilliance in the top order, as he might be paired alongside Gill.

The Rajasthan Royals have not decided to opt up their retentions as of yet, while the skipper Samson surely would look for an opener who can help them settle down at the top alongside young Yashasvi Jaiswal.

The Royals, who have several Indian middle-order talents in Sanju Samson and Riyan Parag, will only be decked up with KL Rahul, who might allow more finishing all-rounders of overseas origin for the Royals, the only thing they lacked.

The Chennai Super Kings are possibly the most successful franchise in history and retaining the great ; they are not in need of a wicketkeeper, yet having a middle-order vacant, they would look to bring in someone for sure.

CSK would hence deck up their middle order in the absence of Rahane, Ravindra, Mitchell, and Moeen, and KL Rahul seems to be one of the best choices for the same.

Royal Challengers Bangalore

As said earlier by reports, RCB were always looking to let go of their former skipper Faf du Plessis, despite him being in irresistible form. KL Rahul can be an asset to them in the top-order.

With speculations of Kohli returning as the RCB skipper for the upcoming season, Rahul might be seen more of as a batter, and KL Rahul might be posed alongside Kohli as the other opener back for the side he made his debut for in 2013.
