Though West Indies Test: KL Rahul will be linking up with Lucknow Super Giants after their practice game on Wednesday due to a flight delay, said the team’s head coach Justin Langer, who also stressed upon doing well for the franchise could result in him landing a spot in India’s squad for Men’s T20 World Cup.

Rahul suffering a right quadriceps injury meant he missed the entire India-England series after the Hyderabad Test in January. There’s been speculation over Rahul either opening the batting or play in the middle order, though not immediately be a wicket-keeper, for LSG, with an eye on making the cut for India’s squad in the Men’s T20 World Cup in June.

“In terms of KL, he was supposed to be here today in Lucknow for the practice game tonight. But unfortunately, he’s holed up on the airplane, so he will be at the ground later tonight. He will probably arrive after the start of day’s play and it will be his first time to be around with the boys and the team.”
