New Delhi [India], April 27 (ANI): After a record-breaking 152* in the previous clash against Punjab Kings (PBKS), the stylish Delhi Capitals (DC) and India opener KL Rahul will be aiming to continue his fine run against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) when both teams lock horns at Delhi's Arun Jaitley Stadium on Monday.

During the previous match, KL blasted 152* in just 67 balls, becoming the third member of IPL's 150-run club and the first-ever Indian to do so.

He also registered the highest individual score by an Indian in men's T20. He also broke several other records, including the franchise record for fastest century (reaching there in just 47 balls) and the highest score (going past Rishabh Pant's 128* against Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2018).

KL holds a fantastic record against RCB, a franchise he represented for two seasons in 2013 and 2016, scoring 839 runs in 19 matches and 18 innings at an average of 69.91 and a strike rate of 145.65, including a century and five fifties, with a best score of 132*.

This season, KL is fiercer than ever, presenting himself as a genuine competitor for the wicketkeeper-batter slot in India's T20I set-up for the 2028 T20 World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, where he has valuable playing experience. In seven innings so far, he has scored 357 runs in seven innings at an average of 59.50 and a strike rate of 187.89, with a century and two fifties.
