KL Rahul has joined the Delhi Capitals for Rs 14 crore, while Rishabh Pant has been acquired by the Lucknow Super Giants for Rs 27 crore in a notable swap during the IPL 2025 mega auction. Previously, Rahul played for Lucknow Super Giants, and Pant represented Delhi Capitals in 2024. The swap marks a significant change for both franchises.
