Virat Kohli is said to be the most unlucky player in the history of Indian Premier League (IPL), because he has played a total of 17 seasons in this league from 2008 to 2024, but he has not got a chance to become a champion even once. He was even called the most unlucky player in the history of IPL and Indian cricket, because he did not win a single ICC event since 2013. However, this stain was removed from his forehead with the 2024 T20 World Cup, because Team India got the victory, but now a new name has come to the fore, who is the most unlucky player in the history of IPL and Indian cricket at present and he is none other than KL Rahul.
Yes, you read it right that KL Rahul is currently the most unlucky player of Team India and IPL, because he has not won a single IPL title with any team yet and neither has Team India been able to win any ICC event while he was in the team. KL Rahul made his international cricket debut for Team India in the year 2014, but since then India has won one ICC event in 2024 and KL Rahul did not play in that tournament (T20 World Cup 2024).
Talking about IPL, KL Rahul joined Royal Challengers Bangalore i.e. RCB in 2013, but the team did not win the title. In 2015, he was with Sunrisers Hyderabad i.e. SRH, but that team also did not win the IPL. When he came back to RCB, RCB could not win the title again. After this, he went to Punjab Kings and the team did not win the title there either. After this, KL Rahul joined Lucknow Super Giants i.e. LSG, but LSG also could not win the title. In this way, it can be said that KL Rahul is the most unlucky player of IPL and Indian cricket at this time.
