Rahul was a part of the Indian squad for the T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia. However, he struggled for form during the showpiece event, failing to score runs consistently.

The right-handed batter mustered 126 runs in six matches at the ICC event, including two half-centuries. However, he was targeted by many fans for not showing enough intent during the powerplay overs. Rahul finished with an underwhelming strike rate of 120.75.
