Experienced batter Ajinkya Rahane has joined Kolkata Knight Riders as they ramp up preparations for IPL 2025.

 

In the nets, Rahane is already making a statement—launching deliveries onto the stadium roof with effortless ease. KKR will be hoping he carries this blistering form into the season.

 

The right-handed veteran was secured by KKR for Rs 1.5 crore at the IPL auction, a move aimed at adding stability and leadership to their batting lineup.
