Kunal was part of the Rajasthan Royals set-up in IPL 2023, making him the first player to bag a IPL contract from the city of Kota. As wicket-keeper batter, Kunal has been performing to the best of his skills and has the ability to clear the rope. He has been a prolific run-scorer for Rajasthan in the domestic circuit. In the Ranji Trophy 2023-24 season, Rathore scored 245 runs, including a maiden first-class century against Manipur, and affected 19 dismissals with the glove. He also tallied 250 runs in the Vijay Hazare Trophy and affected 24 dismissals, helping Rajasthan reach the finals. His performances were rewarded as Kunal was bagged by Rajasthan Royals for INR 30 lakhs for IPL 2025. This presents him with the opportunity to rub shoulders with fellow wicket-keepers like Sanju Samson, Dhruv Jurel which will enhance his game both behind the stumps and in front of the stumps.
