KL Rahul is all set to play in the second unofficial Test match for India A against the England Lions at Northampton, starting June 6. KL Rahul will fly to England on Monday, June 1, to join the India A squad ahead of the second unofficial Test match in Northampton.
Since Delhi Capitals (DC) didn’t qualify for the IPL 2025 playoffs, Rahul has reportedly informed the national selectors that he is fit and available for red-ball action ahead of the highly anticipated Test series in England. He is part of India’s 18-member squad for the five-match Test series in England.

BCCI sources confirmed to The Indian Express, “He will be flying on Monday and will be playing a second warm-up game with the India A side. As he is part of the senior men’s team, which will be playing five Test matches in the series, these matches will give him game time and match practice.”
