So, how did Rahul become a cricketer despite coming from a family of educators? "Obviously, I grew up in a family that played cricket. Whenever our family would come together, my cousins and uncles would play cricket all day. I gradually developed a passion for the sport. As I grew up, my friends and family, who would watch me play, observed that I had a talent for the game," said Rahul with a soft smile on his face.

Growing up, KL admits he used to try to emulate the playing techniques of "Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar." By his teenage, he found his icon in MS Dhoni since "his story was very relatable coming from a small town like mine." In the green room, KL likes to spend time with Virat Kohli. "He has been the best player in the last decade, time spent in the dressing room is always very inspiring."

Sportsmen are always discussed for their style statements, and Rahul is no different. Always appreciated for his athleisure and street style, Rahul says he prefers to keep his look casual yet complement his status as a sportsman. "I prefer a casual style that reflects my true self, but I am mindful of the fact that people recognize me as a sportsman and expect me to dress the part. Athleisure and street-style attire are both fashionable and comfortable, making them a great choice for everyday wear. However, I also enjoy wearing suits too, but rarely do we, sportsmen, get a chance to dress up that formally."
