There are not many stylish batters in the world right now than KL Rahul and he once again displayed why he's rightfully called one of the better batters currently. 

The top-order batters are struggling in the IPL 2022 apart from Jos Buttler and KL Rahul. This is no breaking news that top-order batters are most often than not the highest run-scorers in a tournament like IPL.

71 of these 451 runs came today against Delhi Capitals as he once again set up a strong batting performance for his team. Rahul, as usual, started run-a-ball and chose his balls to strike hard. 

Rahul stitched a 95-runs stand with Deepak Hooda for the second wicket. Rahul dropped anchor for most of the partnership as Hooda took on the bowlers from one end. When Hooda got out, Rahul freed his arms to score 23 runs in 11 balls to give Marcus Stoinis time to settle in. 

It was yet another well-planned knock and could be only halted in the penultimate over of the inning with a great balancing catch on the boundary by Lalit Yadav. Rahul scored 71 in 51 balls with the help of five sixes and four fours.
