In what seems to be an unexpected visual for all the cricket fans who were watching IPL 2025’s LSG vs DC game, the veteran DC wicketkeeper-batter KL Rahul brutally ignored Sanjiv Goenka after Delhi defeated LSG by 8 wickets in Lucknow. It all happened when the players and support staff were exchanging greetings after the end of the match.
KL Rahul was approaching the DC dugout at a speed while walking off the ground after the end of the game. LSG owner Sanjiv Goenka came to KL Rahul to shake hands, but the latter shook the hands half-heartedly and so early and immediately ignored Goenka before moving forward.
The video of this shocking moment, when KL Rahul ignored his previous owner, Sanjiv Goenka, after DC’s win against LSG, also went viral on social media as soon as a user shared it on X (formerly Twitter).
Here’s the video:

Kl Rahul just ignored Goenka😭#lsgvsdc
Notably, the LSG owner, Sanjiv Goenka, made it to the headlines last year in IPL 2024 after he publicly scolded and humiliated the former LSG skipper KL Rahul, and the incident happened to go on air on TV. It all happened after LSG’s humiliating 10-wicket defeat against SRH in a league match of IPL 2024.
