KL Rahul has been a successful captain for Lucknow Super Giants in the IPL and according to him trusting his instincts has helped him achieve it. Under Rahul`s captaincy, LSG reached the play-offs in the first two years and the team could make it three in a row in the ongoing IPL 2024.

Before captaining LSG, Rahul led the Punjab Kings in the two seasons but was not able to take them to the playoffs. The right-hander has also captained India and feels that backing his guts and listening to team management`s advice has helped him find the balance.
