Delhi Capitals takes hilarious dig at KL Rahul over coffee post amid KKR rumours

The TATA Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 has concluded with Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) winning their second trophy. After that, the players have returned to international cricket, and they are representing their own countries. Amidst this, KL Rahul posted on Instagram while making coffee, and in the same post, his franchise, Delhi Capitals (DC), took a swipe at the India opener.

There were talks that Rahul would be leaving the Delhi Capitals (DC) to join Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). However, the DC franchise and its owner, Parth Jindal, put an end to the speculation with two separate posts on X (formerly Twitter). The rumours gained momentum after Rishabh Pant's return to the side, who came from Lucknow Super Giants (LSG).

    According to Sportstak, KL Rahul’s potential trade to KKR was initiated by an animated coffee incident during IPL 2026 in the DC dressing room, which has gone down well with the owners and the franchise. It was reported that the Men in Blue opener threw coffee on then head coach Hemang Badani. However, the rumours did not take much shape.

    Now, after Rahul posted a picture on his social media account, showcasing that he is making coffee, the Capitals social media team commented ‘Kisi pe phekna maat’ and a laughing emoji, taking a swipe at the rumour that was reported by the SportsTak channel. In the same post, Rahul’s teammate Ashutosh Sharma also asked about something in a bowling video.

    Why was KL Rahul not happy with DC management?

    A TOI journalist reported that there were some problems between Rahul and the team management, as he was not on speaking terms with them last year and came from practice on his own, had a talk with the pitch curator directly, asked about the pitches, practiced, and went back.

    “He (KL Rahul) was exactly not on talking terms with the team management last year (IPL 2026). He used to practice on his own and check with the curator (directly) about how the pitches were,” as reported by TOI’s journalist.

    “It was all over the place with Hemang Badani and Venugopal Rao by the end of the tournament, at different ends of the ground,” he added.

    “Things were right, and, see, KL will turn 35 in April (next year), and I think he will be entering the last leg of his IPL career. Maybe he would look to finish somewhere with some peace. And maybe there could be some lucrative offers as well, as all these fights only start when players have offers from other places. Everything was okay when I checked two months ago.”

    Rahul scored 593 runs in 14 innings for the Delhi Capitals during the IPL 2026 season with an average of 45.62 and a sensational strike rate of 174.41, with five half-centuries and one century. Last season, he had the highest score by an Indian batter in the IPL after his 152* against Punjab Kings (PBKS).

    Though he has been in good form, his side failed to qualify for the playoffs as they finished 6th in the points table with 14 points. Though they had a strong squad, they failed to pick up the pace towards the end of the season.
