                                              As KL Rahul is returning to the ekana stadium in Lucknow for India's next league match of the ICC World Cup 2023 he is feeling that his heart is racing because this venue is instilled mixed feelings in the mind of the veteran Indian middle-order batter. 
Rahul, who has enjoyed the great fanfare and support by the passionate crowds that turn up in support of his Lucknow Super Giants side in the Indian Premier League also suffered a career-threatening quadriceps injury at the venue earlier this year. 
Playing the return match against Royal Challengers Bangalore on May 1st in IPL 2023, the Lucknow Captain tore his hamstring while going for a save at the edge of the boundary ropes and limped off the field in excruciating pain, not to return to playing action until six months later at the Asia Cup 2023 in Sri Lanka. 
Speaking in a special interview, Rahul said the bitter memory of finding himself out of the game for a long-drawn phase and undergoing surgery came back immediately as he graced the field for the practice session on the eve of the England game.

"I entered the ground today, I had to do some running and I told Rajini sir who is my trainer that my heart is racing because the last time I was here I had not such a great experience. It was a bittersweet."
He further said that, "Also the ones moments that happen at the very end tend to stay with us for a lot longer and have a bigger impact on us. And that injury obviously had a huge impact on me and my career. It wasn't such a happy moment for me and my family.
