KL Rahul and Kevin Pietersen have been engaging in some lighthearted banter during IPL 2025. Recently, Rahul took a cheeky dig at Pietersen for taking a mid-season vacation to the Maldives while serving as the mentor for Delhi Capitals. The exchange happened during a practice session ahead of DC’s match against Gujarat Titans, where Pietersen jokingly asked Shubman Gill what a mentor does, and Rahul humorously responded that a mentor is someone who takes a two-week Maldives break mid-season.
Their camaraderie has been entertaining fans, with Pietersen previously teasing Rahul about his batting style, comparing it to watching paint dry. Rahul later reminded Pietersen of that comment after a stellar performance against Chennai Super Kings.
