KL Rahul reveals Virat Kohli as his most famous contact during a Q&A, highlighting the global cricketing influence of Virat Kohli and his camaraderie with his teammates.

Rahul was not retained by the Lucknow Super Giants and will go into the auction pool in the IPL Mega Auction set to take place on November 24-25.

Rahul had left the field for medical attention on Friday after sustaining a blow on his elbow by pacer Prasidh Krishna while batting in an intra-squad practice match at the WACA ground.

KL Rahul recovered from an elbow injury. He will likely open the batting for India in the first Test against Australia. Rohit Sharma will miss the match. He is spending time with his newborn baby. Jasprit Bumrah will captain India in Rohit's absence.

The batter’s fitness – he was hit on the elbow while batting – is a relief for India ahead of the first game in Perth
